Looking at tubes ...

Isn't this like watching the visualizer in iTunes or Winamp? I like that, but is it worth the cost?

I like VU meters too, have them on my Son of Ampzilla.

Is it the same kind of thing? I'm on the fence about tubes, but I do have some Maggies now.

I was never a believer in the 70's, I have no experience with any tube amps or preamps.

it's not about watching . . . you really need to listen to tube gear before you can believe, or not believe.

Until then, you're simply not interested in trying them.

I like tubes with my Apogees....I think it depends on your goals. I found tubes to be more musical sounding than what I had been using...Solid state, Krell, Bat, Pass......ect

My advice, forget the Maggies...buy some Apogees, and tubes.

For me, it is the sound of tubes that is really the treat. I can't live without them.
