Frepec went from C46 to C500T.
One of several things that stand out in C500T is the soundstage and low noise floor. In my previous audio room, I was able to achieve a great soundstage where instruments had depth in a not so great small room. With a low noise floor you can here more of the music, especially on solo recordings.
While very pleased with the C500T; I did opt to roll the tubes with a much more expensive tube to increase the micro details; and switched out fuses. This combination of changes led to more details, wider soundstage and more depth.
Hope that helps.
