Hi Al,
Glad to hear the VAC REN amplifier is making you happy.When I first heard those VAC amplifiers about 16-17 years ago I was immediately struck by the sheer 'natural' sound they produced,really close to live acoustical instruments.Up until then my exposure to tube amps were pentode type PP class AB designs,ARC,VTL,CJ etc. These were pretty good but the VAC REN series was just a new level of realism.At that time I did`nt even know what a 300b tube was.
In those days I had very little awareness(actually none) of DHT tube,class A and no NFB vs the alternative(and dominant) pentode/ultra linear mode with feedback.All I knew is that I was hearing something very different more organic and quite honestly, better.I know your amplifier gets you to the core and emotion of your music.
Regards,
