The S-5000 with the 7189s blows away a Dynaco ST70 and PAS3X preamp,especially after a few cap upgrades IMHO. They have an actual five tube preamp and split-load phase inverter with the 7199 Tri/pent.The ST70 loads G2 of the 7199 with a 1.3meg where the Sherwood loads G2 with a 470k.The 7189 outputs take about half the drive the EL34s but keep mind that Sherwood is ultra linear as well.
