What do you people play recorded music for - to be
entertained and pleased

Yeah, and there's a ton of music in this world that
does not need to be wallpapered to sound good.

or sit there with a notepad and
write down what defects you *think* you can
hear....??

That seems to be what you tube bigots do.

Arny. Why do you choose to call people who use/enjoy
tube amps "bigots" Is this in keeping with your
new-born Christian beliefs?

Just calling things what I see them to be. I guess
Iain would prefer that
I lie or obfuscate.


It hasn't bothered you up to now, Arny, so why change?
:-) In my experience tube amp owners are one of the most
contented groups of people with an interest in audio
and music. As Peter Lewis put it, "Happiness is a warm cathode" :-)

Maybe they're just easily contented ?

No Graham. Probably quite the reverse. The tube audio
people that I know seem to spend a long time looking for that last
few percent in the musical performance. That's why
there is so much interest in things like SET and open
baffle speakers, horns etc.
But, if you don't care about the ability to differentiate
between an oboe and a cor Anglais then it doesn't really
matter, does it?
I have made my choice, a homebrew EL34 PPP amp.

I am happy to leave you to make yours.

I moved past fiddling with that kind of crap in the late 1960s.
