Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: Its not my requirements.

There are manufacturers that design to specs and those that design to produce sound. Pretty sure that both can not be the #1 consideration (since there is only one first).

The Tango winders probably came from generations of winders, since skills/jobs were generally passed down. Unlikely that these were trained engineers, but their connection with the product allowed them to create exceptional transformers. Which came first - the transformer or the spec? Meet the spec rather than fully optimize the xformer? There is a reason for exceptional products, and it goes beyond technology.

I consider/buy equipment based on sound rather than spec. Then I can be happy listening to music, rather than being proud that I have an expensive, high spec system that just sounds the way it sounds.
