RE: HK Citation II modern equivalent?

While I'm sure that the ST120 is good and you'd enjoy making/listening to it, the Citation II is one of if not the best of all time. It's iron is fantastic as is it's driver stage and probably unequaled unless you spent a lot for something custom. Bob Carver makes a few amps that supposedly are inspired by it but they cost a boat load.

If you go with the ST120 i'd use diodes etc in place of the tube recifier. One GZ34 doesn't seem enough to do the amp justice. A single one is already taxed in a ST70.
