RE: Dynaco MK IV Boards

Hi Mikey,

I think you might have meant "Joe's" 4 tube 6922 board?

With regard to the VTA circuit, you indicated that it is lively sounding. Do you find its liveliness varies depending on which power tube is used? I ask this because, in my observation, some EL34 tubes have just always sounded "slow" to me across different amps. For instance, I've listened to EL34s in Prima Luna, original Dynaco, and Octave Audio amps, and they all had what I have come to think of as EL34 softness and slowness. I have noted that a number of folks over in the tubes4hifi forum have gone to other power tubes, like the 6L6, KT66, and whatnot...

Thanks.
Peter
