RE: Voices are just so real

That's EXACTLY what I've been listening to for many years!

My transition was DIY tube SE and PP when I was a kid, stopped DIY through the SS and CD era, little attention to audio through the greater years of marriage, back into audio with stupidly expensive gear starting with SS PP, SS class A, big ultralinear tube PP, then DIY all the way through triode PP, DHT SET and then DHT PSE SET for more power.

The magic started with triode PP and peaked at SET. I haven't touched my PSE845s for years (other than tube rolling) but every little improvement I make on my source (exclusively vinyl), I hear!

Funny that others should mention the surround sound thing because that's the way a few friends, new to audio have described what they've heard.

The sound stage is deep and wide with sound extending well beyond the speakers, vocals are to die for and articulate but full bodied instruments placed with pin point accuracy across the sound stage.
