I'm only about 25 hours in on the Electro Harmonix 6CA7s and I have to say they're doing everything I hoped they would. The sweet forward midrange of the EL34 is there without being overly lush or warm, just very musical. The PL EL34s had this too, but they sound really thin on my system. The...

Vinyl Eyezz is on this forum. Just kidding. Maybe.

I’m genuinely curious, though the reason I’m wondering has more to do with the difference in approach to design. Does the large, full range driver (especially with the Souls) offer something remarkably different than the Linton with multiple crossovers. Maybe the Zu thread would be a better...

So how many of you all moved from a Zu speaker to the Lintons? What did the Zu’s do better than the Lintons?

@HiFi Guy No dice. I guess he’s holding out for the Soul Supreme.

I might know a guy. Stay tuned . 😉

It’s true. I think the best way to get one is through private sale. Chances are the owner has tubes they will no longer have a use for and will include them to sweeten the deal. Mine came with $625 worth of additional tubes that had really low hours on them.

I ordered a quad of Electro-Harmonix 6CA7s, which is an EL34 variant. They’re relatively inexpensive at $23 and from what I’ve read, they have good bottom end and lower midrange detail, while maintaining that characteristic EL34 sound. 🤞

At least you don’t have separates?!?

The cage doesn’t fit with the kt150s in place either. The Prima Luna branding on the kt170 makes me think they will fit at least some models. They’re probably going to be hella expensive though.

It's been pretty great, thanks. It came with a pretty good variety of power tubes including kt88s, kt150s, and the PL EL34s. I've spent time with all of them. I could almost see switching them up depending on the music I'm into at the moment, but the kt150s are the all-rounder. They're very...

I tend to go with walnut when there’s a choice of finish, but I’d be all over the rustic hickory if I went the Zu route.

Hey @Splunders, did you get the Gaias on your speakers yet?

If anyone is on the market, Fidelis has a pre-owned Jolida integrated for about half price. https://fidelisav.com/pre-owned/jolida-jd502crc-tubed-integrated-amplifier

Prog is the soundtrack of my nightmares.

Funny thing about the LPS: There’s so much filtering going on, it still has power almost five minutes after unplugging it.

One of the folks at Fidelis did an LPS update to his Insight. He said it was more difficult than he thought Ron made it out to be, but he got through it.

The Luxman amps are so 🤩
