| EL 34 question Thanks guys, for your responses. I have been more than mildly surprised by the improvement wrought by the modest Assemblge SET 300B, however, it does have fresh factory upgrades w/new carbon film reisitors, Jupitor foil and paper beeswax capacitor... | |
| EL 34 question Thanks Ryriken,I checked last night, thinking I had the Mullard reissue EL 34's in but, instead, the EH EL 34's were in. I quickly swapped the Mullards back, and the amp sounded a bit better, but still no match for the SET 300B mesh plates.I'll se... | |

| Sophia Electric 91-01 and 91-5 300B I can offer my recent experience with my Tannoy custom built HPD 315 (12" Dual Concentric, ca 1975). Ever since I built these speakers, wanting to try an SET 300B amp was high on my audio bucket list.A few weeks ago, I purchased such an amp, thoug... | |
| eric burdon I have it, on vinyl, not as good as "Soul of a Man" or "My Secret Life", but still very listenable.The subject matter is rather dark, in line with an apparently pessimistic world view. A perspective that is hard to disagree with, in my view. | |
