yes I am in Bella Italia, although many of us are ashamed to be Italians with these days political winds.
Thanx for the SE proposal but I would prefer Solid state design as my speakers are PHY drivers based and show any hiss. I already had friends bringing theyr tubes indicating they were zero noise and as soon as plugged in to my horns they made fried pans music.
Cheers
Hi Ubik.
No pressure sales here, but with my 97db efficient GR Research V1 and volume at maximum (10wpc) and your ear on the driver's cone, you hear nothing , dead silent.
Tube can be extremely quiet, if well built.
Just wanted to let you know.
Have a nice search.
