Reactions to HP's review of Antique Sound Lab amp?


He raved about the Hurricane in the latest TAS.
Anyone with long term experience care to comment?

Rick-- I might just do the same thing, and keep my Bryston 7B-STs until...

Are the orders that backed up that there is a waiting list
of a month or so? We just missed a pair on the classifieds that went for $2950, but you probably already knew this.

If I buy the Hurricane, it'll be my first tube amp in about 40 years! People (including HP!) keep telling me that's what I need to take the annoying edge off of CDs. We'll see.

BTW---I found the previous threads and came away as confused as before. I guess, as the Brits say, you just have to "suck it and see"! Lots of wannabee experts around.

Hi 914nut......Yes the wait is at least one month. I ordered on set from Lyric Hi-Fi in NYC. They were recommended to me by the distributor in Canada. I happen to know the store (Lyric) and I believe that they would get one of the very first shipments since they are quite reputable. Let's see who else answers this thread?

Hi Mejames......I will do so tomorrow, however, I believe you have the Genesis 200 and from what I understand the 200 watts will work wonderful with Arnies drivers.
yes 200 watts is about enough the VTL 450 working in triode is enough power for the Genesis 201 speakers.
