I sold my Rogue Amp simply for more power than its 60 watts. I got a great deal on an Accuphase P-450 SS amp. I miss the sweetness of tubes but I cannot argue with the raw horsepower of this beast. I still have an Air Tight tube preamp which I would be hard pressed to part with. If my budget allows, I may eventually get a tube amp with some 'stones' but Accuphase is the best SS I have heard. If I were to go back to a SS preamp, I would go for a balanced one or not at all.
Is there anyone who came back from tubes to SS?
...also anyone who used to have SS, switched to tubes and than came back to SS?
Please include music that you mostly listen.
I'm about to switch to tube power amplifiers from Bryston 3b-st to VTL MB125 or Rogue M120 -- still thinking what to choose.
If there is any reason not to switch, please explain
Thanks to all.
