In Reply to: Thinking of moving from solid state to tube... posted by T Wheeler on July 13, 2002 at 18:05:09:
I switched from Sony receiver and carousel cdp to a Zen amp by Decware about two years ago (with no previous tube experience) and have been very happy with it and glad I made switch. No, it's not very powerful, but I don't listen over about 90-95db peaks anyway. The difference in sound is incredible. The best part is it only cost me 500 bucks and it came with a 30 day no questions asked return policy. There's a lot more positive I could say, but will keep short. On the down side, the output tubes needed replaced and I think that was a whopping 8 dollars.So far my only negative experience with tubes (if could call it that) has been with an antique tuner. Sounds great but it cost me as much to have it checked out and tuned as initial purchase price.
I guess my point is that tubes don't have to be that difficult to try and MY maintenence costs have been minimal.
Happy Listening,
Jim
