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

Re: SET Power Tubes and Music Preferences

Your contrast makes some sense for some 300B amps, especially if the associated preamps are a bit soft. But the better 300B amps coupled with dynamic preamps, can turn this bloom into a virtue by refining and firming it up a bit, creating a detailed and spacious image that is very pleasing and not at all artificial.

I do wish Budrew were getting some better answers to his question. There is a perception out there that 300B's are for classical and acoustic only because of their reputed softness. Given the number of 300B amp owners, it would be helpful to hear from some of them how they feel about this matter...?
