In Reply to: RE: Scott 299C or ST-70 with a passive posted by Michael Samra on November 13, 2014 at 08:58:24
Since the ST-70 was mentioned, how does Van Alstines' Ultravalve stack up? He's fairly close to me. I imagine I could use this with a passive volume control correct? Pardon me if I new to some of this especially the passive equip. I only plan to have one source so no need for switching inputs.
Thanks

Like Charles said,use good quality passive components such as the goldpoint.The Van Alstine stuff although very good is also very pricey..The Latino stuff is the bargain of the century and beyond,especially if you assemble it yourself.

If you go passive make sure you go with a stepped attenuator. Not a traditional volume pot. It makes a BIG difference.
Placette or Goldpoint with a remote.
I don't know much about the VanAlstines. The little bit I do know is I liked the EL34 over the KT88 tubes. If you need the power, which I don't think is the issue, the KT88 is over kill.
