RE: Changing Preamp Tubes?

Nunki,

I read xti16's post and it seemed to me that he really liked the KT120's on his Raidho speakers. Did you interpret his post differently? I guess that the KT120's are so inferior that ARC, Conrad-Johnson, Rogue, and many of the other tube manufacturers have adopted them as standard equipment;-)

Abe,

To the best of my knowledge the Atlas Magnum is the same as the Cronus Magnum minus the preamplifier section.

I tried the KT90's in my friends Atlas Magnum before I bought my Cronus Magnum w/KT120's. If I all I had available was the option of KT90's I wouldn't have bought my Cronus Magnum. The KT120's kicked the KT90's butt. Smoother all across the board, more pronounced mid-range (in a good way) and way better bass. I'd advise you to save your money and don't waste your time. But as always YMMV, horses for courses, and all that stuff :-)

Cheers,
Al
