I am using RAAL for tweeter and have not had much time to do anything else :) Before that I did implement P24 (RAAL, isophon, 755c and 416) and it was superb.<br /><br />I am not sure what to add to the write up above. 6cb5a is a great sounding tube it is rich and lush sounding tube. I my implementation I used standard transformers. Perhaps there is more to be gained by going with fancier units. It is great amp for someone in "flesh and blood" camp. It is absolutely great for rock, techno and large scale works (organs, orchestral etc), jazz, blues etc.<br /><br />45 amp is beautiful and extremes are much more extended (very expensive transformers). I do listen to the rock/metal on this amp - with sensitive speakers it will never be an issue. Voices, jazz, blues, chamber music, acoustic and choral our stunning. This amp with 10/801a driver and 26 is so good that I have still did not bother to buy 2A3s to try them out - they would double the output from 1.5W to 3W :)<br /><br />I hope it helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. 801a linestage is superb, and is responsible for large portion of the described sound. <br /><br />Peter<br /><br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349441772525426901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-8539561462316945972012-09-07T03:06:50.155+02:002012-09-07T03:06:50.155+02:00Great article Peter.

Really interesting to see how you graduated from some commercial designs I know and like to Thomas work - and for reasons that interest me to (musical ones).<br /><br />I'd be interested to know what speakers you are using now, if you have changed them. Also, how does the presentation of your 6CB5A (a tube I don't know) compare to your 45/2A3 amp (tubes I have heard)?<br /><br />Justin.Justin Bennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623530568040266064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098337119765190876.post-45295007271021981572012-02-20T09:33:02.045+01:002012-02-20T09:33:02.045+01:00It is indeed.
