Primaluna?

I'm going to repeat my mantra, **KT power amps will begin to lose market share** Its only a matter of time.

I believe, really, the future is Full range type systems, with addced tweeters added woofers.

Which speakers sound best with DHT's. 

You do not need 50 watts of power for speakers with 92+ db sensitivity.

THis is why you see chinese brand KT 88 amps prices falling.

FREE SHIPPING, all over the Inet.

But for DHT's shipping, $$$$$$.

I am glad  to have bought the DHT amp so I can post YT videos  and comments here on audiogon so i can bring attention and clarity to these  wonderful and mysterious DHT tubes.

The reason most (90%) of audiophiles went for KT series amps is for afforadibility and speaker demands.

Now with these new high tech FR + prices for the new DHT designs have been become affradble.

($2k-$5K) vs  decades ago where new DHT's ran you ,,more than I can count. 

Its only a matter of time before this new revolution begins to  take shape and pick up speed.

I think PL will also have problems with new  sales #'s as he sells more amps, which eventually will result in more  PL's on the used market.

Kevin really needs to beging having sales events, xmas and the 4th.  if he wishes to maintain sufficient market share to stay viable.

Some  audiophiles will only buy *on the deal*, not at regular price.

This is The New Economy of  economics.

Yep. He reminds me of someone else. Can't quite remember who...

DHT and single-ended amps fell out of favor years ago.

Is this a personal observation or are you talking about just the products you sell. I personally am all in on very efficient speakers and low watt power amps and can see that trend expanding (or my knowledge regarding that trend expanding???) SET amps do require some thought regarding speakers but 16 Ohm speakers aren’t a requirement for them to sound good.

My personal observation is I’m more into single ended amps than I’ve ever been and sound wise it would be very difficult for me to give them up and pretty sure I'll still feel this way in 6 months, 12 months ...

If all that vintage stuff is taking up too much space I’d be glad to take it off your hands
