Consonance Billie, 300b SET, highly modded*

Consonance Cyber 211, bought based solely on glowing reviews, Tried all the NOS tubes recommended, soft bass, somewhat veiled, and lack of treble. Very pleasant sounding though, which in some systems could be a plus.

Gotham 39s, modded, Mundorf silver/gold in oil caps, Same circuitry as Canary 339s, other than output transformers, 45 vs 50 watts, and caps.

The two starred amps are simply superb, the best I have owned. The Canary 309/339s are grossly underrated by the audio community, and do give you glories of the SET sound, with more muscle.

Started in 1973 with
