Switched From Tubes To SS???Glad You Did???

I do have issues with my tube smartphone...it seems to be burning a hole in my pants, and waiting 40 seconds to answer a call while the tubes warm up seems to result in a lot of missed calls...it does sound better though.

Well I've got about 20 hours listening in with the new amp.It's good,a LOT better than I expected,especially regarding imaging & staging, but it just doesn't quite have that "organic"feel.Drums especially don't have that hear into the skin tone the tube amp has.I do notice leading edge dynamics seem crisper,hearing farther into the string just as the note is struck on guitars,sustain seems a touch better as well...One thing I find funny is the headphone circuit is WONDERFUL,every bit as good as the triode driven circuit in the Cayin..Here the drums DO have that organic feel I'm missing from speakers..I wonder why the difference?

This is nothing. You should see the problems with the turntable in my car.

Today I demo’d the Hegel H590 driving Harbeth M40.2’s,I would KILL to have room for those speakers but I digress..After I got home I pulled the Creek Evo50a out & put the Cayin CS55 back in..Nothing else was changed.WTH was I EVER thinking.There was a reason 12+years ago I went over to tubes..
IMO you can throw $$$ after $$$ on SS chasing the "sounds like tubes"sound & you will never get there,there is no substitute!
PS:I need to hear a good hybrid...
