Getting into tubes
@jzzmn88 , I did own the Berning ZH-230 and sold it after I bought the ZOTL40 because I have many quads of EL34 tubes to roll and the ZH-230 used TV sweep tubes. The ZH-230 and ZOTL40 sound similar until you put some NOS Mullards in the ZOTL40 and then it’s another level. I have heard there is magic with Berning and Merlin but I have not heard them myself. The class A UltraLinear is Better than the class AB ZH-230. The UltraLinear is Berning making a statement. The production model should be available any day now. Just give Mark Schneider a call. He is a great guy to deal with. Lance |
Stop. Don't do it…sure, they might "sound" better, but you're entering a rabbit hole of tube rolling and possible tube obsession that is often impossible to escape. There simply is no cure...purveyors of solid state amps generally say "Hey, our stuff is great and sounds like TUBES." Get out while you still can because, sadly, I can't. |
