Tube vs Solid State?

[E-Stat]

If they still made them like this, I might want to reconsider my big SS amp.

They do. Ever hear a pair of VTL Wotans? 600 watts triode / 1200 tetrode. Simply awesome.

Wotans, with Valhalla interconnects and speakers cables? I think someones been listening to too much Wagner.

Wait, didn't Wotan die when Valhalla burned at the end?

Harry gets access to all the best toys. Note the MB-750s in the background (aka Brunnhildes).

Well since Valhalla passes the flammability requirement for UL 910 tunnel tests (up to 390 degrees), the Wotans are pretty safe. A couple of weeks ago, Luke Manley brought a pair of his newest Siegfrieds to a local dealer for a meeting of the Atlanta Audio Society. While the source was nice, the Meadowlarks they used aren't quite the same as Alon Grand Exoticas. (those are the woofer towers in the background as well)

man being poor sucks ....
maybe showing me them toys falls under cruel and inhuman punishment of some sorts, or federal ada or something.ill have to dial 1800 shyster and ask them..
ok i like tubes .. why not , something about the dynamic range as well as what they are worth has me.. i can remember being given a lafayette la250 i used to play my guitar through .. it was too clean .. couldnt get it distort without my dad attempting to want to kill me ...
hey also nice place for tube info wich most of you ppl know http://hereford.ampr.org/cgi-bin/tube like i think best thing i have is an old freinds fisher x202.. 7868's im most shure .. i do have a couple of bogens i use for guitar when im in the mood , 1 is 2 x 6l6 , other is 4 7868 with one that was biosed wrong by an idiot and now ahs a nice red glow to it .. i have a 7868 , im thinking about swapping in 9 pin tv deflection output tubes , i think 6jn6 {sorry 12 pin } i need to go look through my box o tubes thats buried to find the sub
As a favor to a local band a few years back i lugged enough mackie / crown amps .. like racks of them , to places where the cops showed up during first set saying .. you guys have to turn it down .. some club owners will only allow them 1 speaker anny more for the pa... wonders why ...
i do have to figure out what im gonna do with a crown dc 300 {original} with crown wood case ....
outputs are out of it im too lazy to fix it right now ..
as far as tube vs solid state stuff , i have a nice pile set aside of tubes
and i can remember when ppl wanted to throw old tubes stuff away ......
sorry i didnt save like i should have ....
