Re: Complex music v. ? on ? and ?

Posted by Dave-A on July 7, 2006 at 21:29:34:
Would you elaborate on the amps, tube compliments and speakers you did your testing/ comparisons on?
Would you also elaborate on the relative nature of the music on each? By that I mean an explanation [however crude] of how the music sounded on the different setups you tried would be helpful.
I ask this because my experience, and especially my conclusions directly contradict yours.
SET creates a music that is the utmost clarity, tonality and living, breathing quality...not to mention scale that PP has never even approached. IME.
I don't mean to say it is impossible, but I haven't come across anything that even approaches the next block, so I remain pretty skeptical.
Of course, a 45 or 2A3 SET on Maggies won't float my boat either, but a 304TL on ALE 5-way horns sure does...and an 845 on my PHYs works pretty well too. :)
