In Reply to: Survey : did you take the high power or low power path ? posted by trioderob on January 23, 2023 at 08:10:25:
Been back and forth a few times.
Maggie MG1.6 and 200 watt ss,
to Klipsch Lascala with home brew 45, or 300B or 2A3
Currently using Infinity Rennasaince 90 with Audio Research 100.2 amp,
but I'm startng to feel the urge for a return to SET tubes and horns.
