What are peoples thoughts and experience regarding the sound of current production amplifiers and preamps versus vintage. I would like to exclude reliability, assume the vintage equipment has had electrolytics and out of tolerance components replaced, sockets, switches and potentiometers cleaned, power cords replaced. There are people here with so much equipment experience, seems like a good place to ask the question. Thank-you for responses in advance. |
