I am trying to decide which of the three to end up with. The Mc225, Marantz 8b or Citation V.

For a while there I was thinking of a new Cronus. But after listening to my Sherwood S5000, I realized I should just stick with the sound I prefer. Vintage tube sound. So I decided not to go with a new tubed amp.

How would you describe the "general" sound signatures of these three?

I know asking that is basically an asinine question. Like how "blue" is that sky???? But heck, give it a try.
