LinLai WE 300B or the LinLai Global Elite Permaloy 300B tubes ? There's a pretty interesting article in this month's Stereophile by Herb R about 300b's, including the original WE version, the reissue a number of years ago, and the currently available WE version, manufactured I believe in Rossville, Georgia (US... | |
Classical Music for Aficionados Valentina Lisitsa, Scriabin, Nuances. A collection of mainly short, little-played pieces by Scriabin, which don't form part of the main sets (mazurkas, etudes, etc.). Listening again, and I like it even more than the first time around. The tw... | |
