RE: How many LAYERS of TUBES do you really need?

My reference topology is Transcendent Sound Grounded Grid tube preamp and Transcendent T8-OTL tube power amp.

However I don't like to leave the tube amp on all day. So I bought a Beresford amp switcher and run the solid state QUAD 909 during the day.

I can hear a slight degradation in quality with the QUAD: a bit more grain in loud vocals.

Now to be fair, Transcendent preamp and OTL amps are known to be very "fast" and transparent as far as tube amplification goes.
