Yes when it comes to vacuum tubes ,your loudspeakers as well as audio cables will dictate how they sound in your system.
Rogues Cronus Magnum -KT120 version Integrated amp
I have been listening to this new Cronus Magnum new version with
The KT 120 output tubes .compared to the older KT-90 magnum model
It is clearly better especially low bass, mid bass and image depth.
We have put this integrated amplifier to he test. With maggi 1.7
new Revel 106monitors, and B&W 802 speakers in the 18x 14 room 8ft ceilings the Cronus sounds excellent. We even had another Audiophile
Bring the latest Prima Luna integrated that goes for around $3k.
Without question playing rock or anything that has big dynamics swings
Like orchestral the Cronus was the easy winner at 100 wpc and taps for
8ohms as well as 4 ohms. Itis very well balanced and the beefier transformer and power supplies just lock in the performance.the highs
Are nice open and detailed .i used 8 different CDs from rock to jazz to
Solo singers. The midrange had tons of midrange front to back depth
That usually I have not experienced unless spending over $5k.
This tell me the custom wound transformers are a very high grade.
I would like to note I havenot even put my Vintage input tubes in yet
Just the stock JJ tubes and Phillips.. I have Sylvania black plate 12ax7
Tubes, and RCA clear tops for the 12au7 that makes this even better.
For $2300 I have nothing at all I can mention negative,even at $5k this is a outstanding performer . This Is a no brain best buy read the old reviews
And know the new KT-120 version is a step up !!
