Understand what your saying David but these Dbls really would take some bettering if i could get it right.
I sort of agree with you David,but how about 3 KT88 PP amps ?
Now that sounds like fun .
Even with three WD88VAs you're only talking about £3-4000, rather than £36000 for the Naims.
Just Googled those thanks Shane very interesting couldnt find anything on pwr output though.
Having found a sound you like so much i think it's right to try and capture it (on the cheap) ! .
Too right and i believe its out there with valves.
I did once, talk about ear splitting treble.....once was enough.
You sure that wasn't bagpipes you were listenin to Andrew? .
seriously though chaps thanks for all your interest.
Regards,
Ian.
