Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

There are not transistor amplifiers of similar sound

You are correct, there is such a thing as quality vs quantity.

A lot depends on the speaker. You have an easy one to drive and that makes all the difference with tubes. I should point out though that even though transistor amplifiers can drive lower impedances that is not the same as saying that they will sound better doing so- even they do better on higher impedances if sound quality and nuance are your goals.

There are tube amps that will give you the same sound stage with more bandwidth and less coloration though. Its a never-ended quest...
