How are your room acoustics??
Should I got full tubes or stick with hybrid amps?
I currently have a Jolida 1501. I like it but I think I have upgraditis. I originally bought it (hybrid) because I’m really sensitive to highs (get a headache). It’s been good to me and I can listen without fatigue.
To help with upgraditis, I just bought a Yamaha AS801 to try out and although it definitely sounds good and has nice detail it is creating a little fatigue for me. I’m still in the break-in period so this may smooth out a bit. (I definitely like having bass/treble controls).
Thinking about picking up a full tube amp or another hybrid for comparison. I don’t know much about other manufacturers of tubes/hybrids.
What’s the difference (sonically) between a hybrid and a full tube amp? Any recommendations?
Thanks!!
