Contrast/compare 50W tube amps

Forgive me,the tube is the EL-509.
Hiend2 Would you disclose the web address and exactly what Arthur is picking.??

FWIW His info on the M-60 is based on an amp that was built about 7 years ago.

Thank you Atmasphere for the web link.Though I'm not sure the same synergy would apply to my system ,as it does to Arthurs'.Every one is entitled to their opinions (right or wrong).

I have noticed,of late,that those expressing an unpopular point of view or not falling in line are being silenced by a barrage of insulting comments.I,personally,have accused of being unprofessional and my credibility tarnished.I don't intend to point any fingers.My responses to these members have not seen the light of day,due to moderators discretion.This site seemed to be a free-flowing forum,where everyone was intitled to their opinions-no longer
For the record:I am a Walker Audio dealer,although I spend the majority of my time selling Omega Mikro.I had decided not to be a vendor for electronics as I feel their are too many flavors to choice from and with the current trend to proclaim certain brands as better or best.there is the chance of getting caught holding the proverbal "hot potato".I have had much exposure to many brands,especially during my stint at Salon 1 Audio (over 500 brands-I was front-end manager).It seems my small part in this industry has caused some to doubt my honesty.Many of them being "vendors" also.But I will not allow others who are vendors to smear my name or cause second guessing,when they themselves are not disclosing their standings in the industry.
I have come to the conclusion that I need to depart this environment for my own piece of mind.Music will always be a BIG portion of my life,but squabbling with other WILL NOT.I fully intend to relinquish my sales position by January 1.2007,after my contractial agreement ends.I will make a last post on the wonderful OTLs that I acquired,but will no longer venture into the forum posts.
My decision is final .

Tpsonic,

Too many egos here. People seem to forget that their opinions are only their opinions and not necessarily right or wrong. I, for one, usually make a quick statement of opinion then back off and ignore any rude comments. Too bad a few people have to spoil it for the many...
