I can't be sure of your assertion, but I dislike the general paradigm in play and DIYaudio. I remember Kofi - funny dude - and his builds, well questions, not so many pix... but that was rare.Generally I have found DIYaudio to be measurement and technically-driven - an internal validity focus - often trivialising the importance of emotional connection with music (external validity). There are some exceptions that prove the rule, but they are rare. Each to their own, but not my scene... Before you ask, I did invest some time over there and I learned a lot from Thorsten and a few others, but I don't care for it now and moved on. So did they.
I'd like this community post their builds: their purpose, guiding principles, desired outcomes and results in preference to enduring the DIYaudio Tube forum. I am not suggesting it become insular though!.. just clear with what it is trying to achieve (and tolerate).
I think the members of this forum can make it great(er) again.
I need to go to bef... er, bed.
Cheers,
