TAD 150

Left work early to come home and hook it up. Let it run for about an hour before sitting down to listen.

WOW! It's VERY nice right out of the box. Smooth, tight, extended, detailed, you name it! I didn't know tubes sounded this good. I can't wait to hear what it sounds like in a week.

If anyone is thinking about one of these, take the plunge.

I'll post back in a few days with more details.

Well...I listened to the TAD all weekend and it just keeps getting better. It's very detailed, yet not at all bright. The bass keeps getting deeper and tighter. Overall, very detailed, yet smooth, solid and full.

So far I'm very pleased with the purchase!

Eagleman, sorry I didn't respond to your post earlier, but I am glad you found the biasing easy, as I did. I am also happy to hear you are pleaseed with your initial impressions. Keep us posted on your thoughts. Thanks!

For anyone who bought the original 150 and had it modded to signature level. What differences if any have you noticed. This would be my next venture...

An update. All of the sudden this thing REALLY opened up. Much more low level detail. But not just detail. The dynamics, micro & macro, are much more immediate & realistic. Same goes for the decay.

This meager little assesment doesn't do justice to the 150. I really can't put in to words how good it sounds. I will say my system has never sounded more realistic.
