Audio physic virgos - Has anyone tried tubes??


I auditioned a lot of speakers in the past year, these were my hands down favorite. Magical prescence, they put the music in your lap, they grab your emotions. I think a SET triode amp would make an already magical speaker even more so. Has anyone tried tubes? I know they are a bit of a load to drive......

Yup. With KR 8000 (¬50W triode, huge power supply), Atmasphere (the small ones) and Pathos twin tower (OK, it's a hybrid, but still...). I found the sound superbly correct, euphonic, and appealing. The asking price appalling.
Along with the inspired choices for tubes mentioned in other posts, you may wish to give hiflyer's S-Line/Odysseys a try. The sound just might amaze you!

Cheers
