Well, my main system utilizes an ARC LS17SE preamp, HK Cit II rebuilt tube amp by Mike Samara, and Merlin TSM Black Magic speakers. So I have a reasonable understanding of what better equipment sounds like, along with my performance background as a musician. Picked this EL84 amp up off the curb for free in the original cabinet (which was returned to mother nature). I utilized it originally in my work shop and now for near field listening (~3 ft) with my desktop computer. I'm simply taken back by the sweet sound of those EL84's - for something that is sold old and basic. So if I can toy with it to get a little better sound out of it with parts I have lying around, I'll be very happy. Not going to spend $100 dollars on it. But it does cause me to look more closely at EL84 amps. There are bigger versions of this type of amp that folks completely rebuild and utilize.
