I love tube preamplifiers and amplifiers
« on: 5 Nov 2023, 06:11 am »
I live tube gears much more than solid state ones. My most favorite tube preamps are fisher 50-c and marantz 7c. My must favorite tube amplifiers are mono blocks using 45, 2A3 tubes.

    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Welcome to AC  :thumb:
Tubed vintage Marantz machines are rather expensive, his SS brothers are cheap.

Some tube amplifiers can be cheaper than SS. For example, some vintage Eico or Pilot 6v6 tube amplifier can be purchased below 1000 usd.

This is Imagefly2008, and I am from San Francisco Bay Area. I frequently buy and sell audiophile equipment to try different setups. I love both SS and tube preamp/amp. For speakers, I love horn speakers!
