The reviewer did state that While this SIT platform does bridge transistors and tubes, it doesn't clone the latter. It remains distinctive. Depending on your triggers and their sequence and what music you fancy, you still might prefer valves. I am seeking just a bit of that SET tube magic myself, so I still want to hear a few more views on these amps.
