Re: SET regrets anyone, want to go back to SS?

I am lucky enough to run both a SS system(s) and a 300B SET system --- i like both , but the SET system is best imo. It's hard to beat the timbre/tonality/detail/smoothness/dementionality, etc, of the SET.

The high power SS system is more of a party or background music system to me at this time. The SET is for more serious sit down listening.

I also rotate a Red Wine 30 amp with my 300B for the hot summer months --- very good amp, and very close to the SET sound.

If i could only have one system though, it would be the SET system. IMO to get the optimum sound of the SET rig you MUST match it with the proper speakers. They will play lots of speakers, but not to the potential they are capable.
