SET Shootout China VS The USA


2A3 SET from china arrives any day now.

The tech who loaned me his UX250 (aka 50 Tube) amp, with a  12AU7 in front + a  6BH7 (??) , has incredible pure Cobalt out trans. ($1k+ each back in 2000, now no longer in production). . he will help me set up the  2A3. 

Has a  AX+AU my 2 fav front tubes anda   quad of 2A3's. 

My speakers are pure neutrality, no coloration, no distortion,. 

So whatever amp/ source you plug in, will register the nuances inherent in the circuit.

Will be very interesting. 

USA has pure cobalt out trans which gives the edge in power, but the china 2A3 has a 2 tubes per channel.

Gonna be interesting and will post a  YT upload with comments,

AFTER TESTING IS COMPLETEED.

Hand on to your horses at the OK Corral. 

Grab a  beer at the saloon, 

sundown shootout at the edge of town.

新疆政府组织出来新疆实习生1000人左右,政审,体检合格,年龄16至18周岁,由新疆政府委派正式在编干部管理,厂方有需求可申请新疆籍在编警察24小时驻厂管理!合同期为一年起签!新疆厨师可自带,要有统一的员工宿舍,(方便管理)。签定合同后人员15天内到企业!请有用工需求的企业提前联系!用新疆工的优势是:半军事化管理,能吃苦,人员不流失,合同签多久,就上班多久!100人起送!
 We had the same system here in the US but it ended in 1865.

 

Once you hear what they do there’s no going back. If your SETs don’t use 6SN7s there’s a whole better world out there...

Better still stay away from the N7’s madding crowd and stock up on some 7193’s while they are still affordable. No contest IMHO. Kinda cute too - if you're into Mickey Mouse.....,.

@mozartfan if your tech is real hair shirt get him looking at DHT drivers for you amps.....transformer coupling. Enough to keep the OCD going for decades.....

You know what would be a  great new lil topic,, ~~~Post your best pics/videos of some of the coolest looking SET amps you can find on the Inet.

Pics, YT vids, whatever.

Here's one I just found by sheer luck,, ...these  2 tubes have me ~~mezmerized, hypnotized,, spell bound~~~ I've seen the vid already 2x's and can't stop. 

I wish the guy had shut the lights off,, wow factor would have been through the roof. 

And the speakers,, nothing special at all, and sounds just super realistic.

Where's the ADD To CART/BUY NOW button,,haha.

Now everyone post their top pic of **unusual* ( = out this world)  SET tubes amps they can find on the Inet

Pics are ok too, does not have to be a  video

Now go find yours
