Re: Which means the Tung-Sols are built to have superior cosmetics with similar materials.(nt)

You make some good points Jim. I think the tube market looks pretty healthy right now. Competition has raised the quality too. Look at the better quality of tubes made in China. They were pretty bad a few years back.
I've always enjoyed both solid state and tubes. There are good and bad examples of each. When I threw in the towel and said goodbye to tubes ten years ago, it was because the tubes were very shaky and there were not high quality alternatives in my mind. You can only take so much and you had to be brave to stick it out 10-20 years ago.
I got back into listening through tubes a few months back for the third time and I'm enjoying music more than ever now. There are many good tubes available now and the prices are fair. I happen to believe that tubes are underpriced currently, across the board, but I'm not complaining!
