In Reply to: Are tube liquidity/palpability and neutrality antithetical? posted by jazz251 on August 4, 2012 at 14:39:15:
I didn't find the ARC VT-100 & 200 to be very liquid at all. The VTL amps I haven't spent enough "quality time" with to have a strong opinion. It has been to long since I've heard either a RM-9 or a RM-200 to reliably comment. I don't, however, remember the RM-9 being what I'd characterize as "very neutral."To my ears the Atma-Sphere do the best job among the tube and hybrid amps I've heard of retaining tube virtues (liquidity, palpability) while getting rid of tube distortions/colorations (fat, lush, warm).
