Of course not Geoffkait, your missing the context and intent of my statement silly.  I was referencing the common reaction we all have to live music...it’s easily identifiable!  At home, I can understand how someone would try and get a bit of that...

In addition, I have found that SS amplification requires more attention to power supply/AC quality.  Cable design is also more imperative toward maximizing sound quality with SS components.  Either technology can deliver pleasing results.  One thi...

I auditioned the Hegel 360 but couldn’t warm up to it...sounded a bit flat and cool. That’s coming from a guy who loves his Krell Vanguard!  Somehow the Krell straddles the fence better between detail and musicality.
