I need help describing the sound of a SET to a friend in English.


I am trying to help a gentleman in this forum and I have the feeling that my English is getting on the way.

How would you describe the sound coming out of a SET?

Thank you!

"organic" is really good.

 

Also, if your friend is so inclined...

 

Listening to Kepa Junkera Urraza recordings through a decent SET based system is mind blowing.

My impression of SET is one has to hear to understand.  Not optimistic it's possible to understand before one hears.

1930's table radio technology! I have four of them! Best used with speakers rated for 100db @1 watt. That means something like an Altec VOTT/A7 or the slightly smaller A5.

Music comes out of a speaker, not an amplifier. If an SET is properly mated to a great speaker (high efficiency, high impedance), then you will have great music.
