Now if people buying valve gear would just say its because they *prefer*
the sound rather than saying the sound is *better* (how can it be given
SS systems can reproduce it), there would be no problems :-)

Is it possible to prefer something and not think that it is better at the
same time?


Yep, I love/prefer my old Luxman tuner (or would, if I could get a decent
signal) but I bet it's not really in Leagues, Division 1 or 2 really....

Btw, the second amp finally turned up this afternoon - how's yours going??
