p.s. music reference is extremely detailed and has great bass control....similar to the arc.
Oldies but Goodies???
There have been a ton of old stereo tube amps on the Gon (5-10 years old). VTLs, VACs, CJs, BATs, ARCs, etc.
Can anyone tell me what the sonic characteristics of these lines are? For example, I had heard that the VTLs have great warmth but lack bass. The older CJs lack some detail but have decent bass and lush mids, etc.
I have been thinking about trying a tube amp for some time now but I am not sure if I want to spend too much, maybe up to the $2K (BAT VK-60 or ARC VT-100 MKII) or under $1200 (VTL, CJ) for some of the older model amps.
Suggestions???
Thanks and Happy Listening.
