I also listened to a pair of maggies and like... | |
| Tube Comparisons on VTL 7.5 I did some experimentations in my 5.5 and came up with similar results as DGAD saw between the Svetlanas and telefunkins when i used NOS Mullard 12ax7 and the Svetlanas. The mullards gave up the details in the sence of room space and in the top en... | |

| does a stereo system sound like live music ? no. never willbut i postulate that it aint the playback system it's the recording that has the main effect.
