So true, but you would hope that the journey of "experience" would flush out the reality among those of us who are tube addicted. :)
Your input has been helpful,Jack... because those 3 are the Siemens I haven been considering. Actually 2 of them since the CCas are out of line for me getting into 5 to 6 bills.
Can you you say a little bit what the similarities and the differences were between 7308/E188CC and the 6922/E88CC for you? And what had you stick with the latter?
I've liked what I heard of in the sound of Einstein Absolute so I know where somewhat in the same ballpark of listening taste.

In my experience, there are slight tonal balance differences between the two. Both are clean and crisp, with a Seimens "house sound", but the 6922s had a flatter FR, with more extended treble and deeper bass, while the 7308s had a slight emphasis on the lower treble and mid bass.. The other difference was that the 7308s were a bit more forward, with a shallower soundstage.
BTW, you really want the 6922s before they went to the "A" frame in the late 60s. I/m not sure on the exact year they switched.

Jack,
Thanks... real helpful... and I get it about the "A" frame...
I assume by "FR" you mean frequency response...? And, therefore, a purer sound.
