Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    ... and sounded even better.

    Lee's 8 wpc amp in pic 26 + John's pre in pic 18 + Fred's FR, birch pipes (posing with Fred in pic 04) was a stellar combination...

    My first meet, and I felt very welcome and at home. A great group that was more than willing to reel their discussion down to earth so that even a tube novice like my self could relate.

    I'll be attending more of these in the future...
    More later,

    Dave,
    So hard to tell given all the other "new-to-my-ear" gear in Luther's Shanling set up. That plus I mostly camped out in the back room. In the back room folks were pretty disciplined about changing out one component at a time, so you really could hear differences.

    Until we hit the combination I raved about in my earlier post, I really wouldn't have sought to buy/ build any of the gear in the back room short of Luther's EV's. But that combo was a worthy one... and one of the most dramatic instances of system synergy I have heard.
