Steve - do you still listen to your NVA amp, or is it tubes all the way?

No I don't listen to the NVA amp at the moment. I use the P20 and the Phono 1 into the valve amp. Interestingly, the 2A3 valve amp was voiced, and A/B'd with specific reference to the sound of the A20. The sound of the A20, woke me up to the fact that the previous valve amp I was so proud of, was actually not very good; it was all hi-fi and very little music.Lotus Seven S wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2018 7:04 am Steve - do you still listen to your NVA amp, or is it tubes all the way?
Thanks - and yes it is - but not for everbody. In many ways it is quite average and not exceptional at all. I think you need to appreciate the Japanese Aesthetic to really appreciate Leben and understand how "well-formed" it is. Understated Zen, and I will never part with it.Leben.....now that's class.
