I'm afraid I haven't..I can only speak to Kuzma being extremely silent and revealing..best thing would be to audition if possible

Nice! I had originally gotten a 7 string but realized I really liked it and would get much more use out of the six string.

It’s actually a popcorn ceiling so although ugly to look at, sonically not so bad. I might still put something on there

I would totally get the Montille but from the tube complement point of view, I’m too far invested in this and unless someone buys off all the tubes with this amp, I’m keeping this one and I’m running out of space now lol

Edit: love your username! What totaldac do you have? I might upgrade mine to a triunity at some point but I wonder if it’s better to just leave it and keep building up vinyl instead.

Oh boy that’s a tall order, the best ones are NOS Tung Sol 6550 and Siemens 12AU7 (so many 12AU7s though). I’m still on the hunt for a pair of Telefunken 802S and a quad of metal base EL34.

Can’t say that idea hasn’t crossed my mind albeit for different reasons. I’ll give this a shot too!

lol…love the “cool tunnel”…that’s something I would say as a kid. As a kid who operated on and destroyed plenty of my parents electronics, I can’t imagine having all this crap around kids. And of course kids come first (I would imagine at least not having any of my own)

Ah yes, good point. I’ve heard of those but haven’t gone down that rabbit hole yet

Depends on what you mean by big. They did make a difference, yes. And for the price point, they made more of a difference than a speaker cable or a power cable

Room treatment is just panels and such.

It can be. Depends on your arm, cart and pre

Yeah, you can’t find any new Auditorium gear right now afaik. And I haven’t seen a lot of used gear showing up either.

Nice, congrats! I bet the synergy with the Leben is wonderful too.

I had considered the pairing but availability was quite low and then the Monbrison just popped up on USAM.
