RE: Tube Rolling Pathos Acoustics Classic Model One MK ll





The Dill............, now we're talking, someone whom actually owns one of these integrated amps, much thanks for sharing your response | recommendations, as I've wanted so badly to add the Valvo's to my extremely short list of options, seeming as how I've loved their 12A_7 types in other integrated's I've owned........, as for the Amperex PQ 6922's in question, are you talking " White " or " Orange " Text | Logos?, domestic?, or Holland?.

And I've been reading upon your recommended Matsushita 7DJ8 | PCC88, as well as the Tungsram versions, yet seemingly the staff at Upscale Audio aren't as responsive in responding to emails, or even advising what type of preamp tubes, can be used or not?, so by you stating this in itself is a major blessing.

On the power cord thing, while I've owned ( and sold ) a few like the Harmonic Technologies Pro AC-11+ | Acoustic Zen Satori | Shunyata Research Vemon - Taipan Alpha - Copperhead | Synergistic Research Black 12 and 10AWG as well as their earlier Master Couplers | Oyaide Black Mamba Sigma V-2, and am very very very very happy in rotating between 2 less then $250 AC cords which seemingly are neutral in a great way, as to work between the 3 integrated amps I rotate through, in the Puritan Audio DPMD ( or something to that effect?, as the cord is located on the amp in the bedroom, so I can't recall the exact model ) cord from England, along with the ready built Viborg AC Cord ( $92 | 1.5m on Amazon ) as I type this, and couldn't be happier.

The weird thing is of late, I've come across say $125 - $315 IC's, which to my ears ( senses ) clearly better ones I've owned in the past which cost better $600 - $1.200, and even weirder......., they're out of counties like England and Argentina, whom would've thunk is was possible as far as 10-18 years ago, much like amps and speakers of late, man oh man I'm enjoying the shite out of the cheap little Triangle Borea BR02's, more than I've with other less responsive Mini-Monitors of which cost upwards of $2.700 like my Herbert P3ESR's which run for cover " much like the cowardly lion from the Wizard of Oz " when the music becomes complex, talk about Ssssssslllllllllllllloooooooooooowwwwwwwww!, anything other then a girl with guitar or even a simply acoustic jazz trio, throws them outta whack.

Oooooo, where were we?, talking tubes, once again " your advise has proven most insightful | greatly appreciated " I owe yah one.

Thanks.
