Anybody own Audio Experience Symphonies?


Anybody own Audio Experience SYMPHONIES preamplifier from YS-Audio? How does it sound compared to other high end preamp?
royy
I just bought a Symphonies plus preamp,I am curios to know how did the new tubes (groove tube 12AX7M) work out?? anybody own the plus model? what do you think about it? J.C
Can anyone tell me what each 12Ax7 does in this unit? Is it like the Minimax ? 2 each for gain one for tone ? If so which ones
Thanks in advance
Well I found out. Center 12AX7 is input and to outer one are for gain, Good to know if you want to mix tubes
"Center 12AX7 is input and to (sic) outer one (sic) are for gain, (sic) Good to know if you want to mix tubes (sic)"

I've posted several notes in the last 6 months or so about this preamp and how it uses tubes. The 'X7 in the center of the three is the 1st gain stage for both channels, i.e. it's used in stereo. Each left and right 'X7 is used for the 2nd gain stage and cathode follower for one channel.

On your statement, don't you think the the 1st gain stages provide gain?
.
the side ones with JAN Phillips - very steady gain, and that Mullard tone. Groove Tubes makes the reissue. It's very easy to find but I hear they are raising their prices. All the wires in the runs are not the same gauge and can be upgraded.
