People....
You really should know. I repeat....know... hands down....tube amplifiers
are the big winner in seeking esoteric audio reproduction. McIntosh brings
big bucks for a reason. Solid state just can't do what tubes can. Solid
state feels harsh, sounds harsh. Tubes bring reality to audio reproduction.
Warmth...
One suggestion here, if Wayne is interested in better audio. That is,
polypropolene capacitors. Clearity that has to be heard to be believed. Oh,
what it does for a woman's voice. David Hafler used these in his cost
conscience high end audio products.
You guys really should go listen to some high end audio. It is so good. You
remember that talk about "back masking"? Where they would record things
backwards on the rock music? Well...with high end audio...you can hear that
stuff so good that it sticks out like a wart on a person's nose. In order to
listen to some of this stuff. You have to seek out a specialized high end
audio store.

Because some people confuse superstition and science.

When I worked for a power company, our customer representative got a call
from a customer wanting to know how his power was generated . He had
read
an article in a stereo magazine informing the readers that power generated
by natural means (hydro,wind or solar) would produce more natural sounding
music. Its hard for engineers to give advice in such instances. My
impulse
was to tell him that our power was not only natural but organic also.
