"There are far better speakers from that era than the 890C."

I have now got out of tubes and back to Solid State, and I'm using real inefficient speakers! lol

But hey, it all about what sounds good to you, huh?
I would still like to try SET amps one day...
Tube are great and more musical than most SS
BUT not more musical than my P-300, IMO

Thanks for all the tasty info, perhaps when I do get to try SET, I go for one of the better Altec.

Thanks for sharing your thought everyone!
