Not to start this thread on a unpleasant note, but I find euphonic components irritating and boring to listen to. I believe their enough wonderful pieces today in our hobby that offer lifelike timbres,dynamics,etc., that have great liquidity/musicality without having to dull details/prat with a fat/overly artificial euphonic sound. Most listeners that I know who really enjoy this type of sound come from harsh digital front ends/bad in your face SS amps or speakers and therefore find sonic peace in their new warm/euphonic pieces. Hope this doesnot sound mean spirited, just honestly sharing my opinion.
Wonderfully Euphonic Component Nominations
I am curious what components everyone thinks are the most euphonic. What components do you listen to for hours on end with no fatigue? What components are not accurate or neutral, but wonderful to listen to?
My nomitations are:
Every Cary Amplifier I've heard
Fisher 400
McIntosh 240
Vandersteen 2Ce Signatures
Proac 2.5's
Quad ESL-63's
Anything using Western Electric 300b tubes
