RE: Western Electric

yes the presentation was huge but larger than life and not so well focused overall.

I am not so sure the electronics are as "colored" as you claim and depending on the cables themselves it may or may not be a big issue. Probably with the power they were required to deliver and with the bandwidth limitations of the speakers the distortion was probably very low indeed.

You are probably right about the room although I have never had the kinds of problems with rooms that people claim...when a system works I have found they tend to work in a wide range of rooms but of course this is an area where nice improvements can be realized.

As for the gear...well I have heard the Kondo stuff do some pretty special things in other systems besides this one...maybe it is the seriously expensive silver output trannies and the hand wound silver foil caps because the circuits themselves are not really so novel.

I like OTLs but I am sure I would like them better if they were also SET.
