If you were to carry a tube product line?
Too bad Sonic Frontiers is gone. Neutral, well built,low output impedances, single ended and balanced, remote and lots of inputs and out puts. Their componenets were compatible with a lot of gear including solid state. 
I need a live great recording
I'm with Slipknot's suggestion for Bill Evans "Waltz for Debbie".

I think Allabhaganinfo, has hit it right. Based on my own limited experience, to say that just the presence of tubes/transistors can make everything right, is just as silly as saying that just the presence tubes/transistors can make everything wro... 
Powering Audio Physic Virgos
P.S. While I haven't actualy heard them together and if there wasn't such a dark cloud over EC's reputation for customer service here in the US, I would suggest an Electrcompaniet intergrated as a consideration.

I have to admit, Eldartfords arguments don't make my fears seem that irrational. 
Your Favorite Chet Baker Recording

Your Favorite Chet Baker Recording
Am I the only one that thinks that the only thing flatter than Chet Bakers horn is his voice? Lyrical, yes. Great side men, yes. Just so grotesquely flawed that I can't stand to be in the same room with his playing. It hurts. 
Madrigal Mark Levinson out of business.
