VAC 160i SE vs Audio Research GSi75
I owned the vsi55 years ago & didn't care for it.  Ballsy but not quite 20/20 vision if you get my drift.  Cant imagine the 75 would be that much different.  I'd definitely go VAC having heard their products a few times and talking w/Kevin who...

Patty Griffin, self-titled.....great! 
Great guitar 'breaks" (as opposed to solos).
any of J.J. Cale's tasty little genius guitar breaks on his typically always short songs....every time I hear one I wish he would have strung it out just a little longer....it's like great meal that wasn't quite enough food to satisfy.

Highest BUILD quality tube amps?

So disappointed in today's Americana
Just picked up John Hiatt, The Eclipse Sessions, 2018....longtime fan..nuff said 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
I've always hoped Roger would take the time to join the forum here.  My RM-10 Mk II that I bought new from him in 2011 is my last amp.  He personally burned it in a few days before shipping so it would be trouble-free and it has remained rock soli...
