Remember, I'm the quitessential "plug and play" kinda guy when it comes to enjoying music. <BR/>* I don't really have space for a pair of HUGE monoblocks. <BR/>* Small apt + tube power == heat. While it doesn't bother me much, Michelle wouldn't care for it one bit.<BR/>* The PA speakers that I use aren't *that* good to really justify a nice set of tube monoblocks to push them. Plus, they are power hungry. <BR/>If a few of these were different from the reality that I have right now (along with the coin, of course), I might have looked for tube power. I'm *very* happy with the setup I have for now. It's a good base to build on when I have the cash to purchase some B&W speakers. I like the amp so well, that if I decide to go multi channel, I will dig for another one of these M4 units. :)CaptSlaqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09765756604461479531noreply@blogger.com
