Vintage tube sound from a modern amp


I am just collecting names of makes and models of tube amps that harken back to the older classic tube sound but have modern chassis, connectors etc. Any such amps you guys enjoy?

So far names that have come up are Cary SLI series, CJ Art and classic 62/120.

Many tube companies are pushing more and more to a neutral and fast airy (thinner) sound. So its becoming increasingly difficult to find gear with that classic sound the exemplifies the beauty of music.

I’ll stick with this vintage beauty I’ve owned for 25 years. It’s going back to VAC for the MkIII S update in January 2023. It’s has worked flawlessly all these years.

I hope you haven’t confused me for a tubephobe. I love tubes. I can appreciate and like a good class A SS amp, but tubes rule my heart. I just don’t care for extra warmth where it doesn’t exist. A little to the right of neutral is good for me. Vintage sound misses the mark IMHO….

Cheers @ozzy62 love the sound of all my amps, that’s why they are in my home. Enjoy your rig and remember it’s about the music.
