Depends on what you mean by oomph.

209.190.32.6

If you mean upfront and punchy, then I've heard my Mac MC60's and the even better MC275 do that pretty well. If you mean massive, ominous, and "slammalicious", that is a lot rarer territory for tubes. Heard on a dealer's Wilson X-1's, it takes a pair of Audio Research 600s to move massive amounts of air like a Krell FPB600. I noticed that Noel Keen's review at Stereo Times indicates that he switches between his Krell and big KR tube amps on his VR-8's depending on what material he listens to and what presentation he desires. Boy, it must be nice to be well-endowed (financially)! BTW, I also own SS.
