Some high hands are those who would try different approaches, not just $$$ or absolute sound...

These 2 little amps are quite unique and competent in different ways.

Acoustic Masterpiece (Air Tight) M101, using one 12AX7 and one KT88 bumping out 8W per channel

Interesting design with KT88 tubes.

Do you still use the Cello EQ?

Basically, I have two systems in my playground: one tube and one solid state.

Tube system runs on Air Tight ATC-1 preamp and M101 SET amp whilst SS system involves basically a junior Cello system: Palette preamp and Encore monoblock power amp.

I have three sets of speaker: Full horn-loaded Klipsch La Scala, Cello Stradivari premiere (aka 4 feet) and 10" full-range Coral Flat 10II in original Coral B-1010 cabinet with add-on Carol B-1X horn tweeter.

I listened to vocal, jazz and classical most of the time.

It's rather hard to say

As I have just started playing with full horn-loaded speakers, the combo of tube plus La Scala is the set I listened to most of the time recently.

Cool.

As some said, once horned, you're gone!

The most poisonous is "open baffle speakers" !
