Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

RE: I appreciate you input, particularly because

I agree BAT solid-state is a little dark. I haven't heard Threshold, NAT or Spinx Project. I believe Tim de Paravicini's EAR/Yoshino M100A was another solid-state design intended to sound tubelike, but another I've not heard. De Paravicini, like Victor Khomenko, gravitates toward tubes, but both designers claim they can get the sound they want from either topology.

Re: getting solid state to sound tubelike, I find fascinating an older article from Stereophile, "The Carver Challenge". You can do an internet search for carver challenge stereophile if the link doesn't post.

Thanks again for sharing your experience.
