In 2020 and 2021 it did not take place due to corona. I didn't get any information, otherwise a friend reported. I hope the situation will be better next year.I think it takes place in Normandy France.

yeah my best friend just returned, it was the last at Normandy as I heard, next three should be in Netherlands or Belgium from what I recall.
Western Electric We 43 (Year1929) 20 watt per chanel 211 tubes
I had listened to this original WE amp about 6 years ago at my friend's listening room.
It sounds natural with nice details and dynamics.

Since I had been enjoying Line Magnetic 508 for 4 years with Nos tubes in it, I will not denigrate there sincere effort.
Of course, it is better to get genuine WE amps, if you can.
My dream is to get genuine WE big horn system with field coils.
I had found one at 270k$ two years ago, but I could not shell out money at the time.
Thus I had better save money to get the genuine one rather than spending money on small gadgets.

l received Cayin 300b push pull amp this afternoon.
For testing, I had run the amp with all original tubes to drive Altec A7.
It gave lot of potential with warmer sound but some coarse edge bothered me.
I had decided to do tube rolling step by step, starting from 6sn7 tube, then ECC82(12au7), ECC83 and at last 300b tubes.
I have more than 100 kinds of NOS 6sn7 or variant, but I had decided to try Sylvania 6f8g which give neutral sound with some full warmth.
Wow, after changing stock 6sn7( some Russian or Chiness new production) with Sylvania 6f8g, it give much more refined sound with less coarse edge.
The above Youtube video was taken with all stock tubes.
But I will upload the one after Sylvania 6f8g pretty soon.

TUNG SOL USA JTL 5814 12AU7 ..

Oh my God!
After I replace
quad ECC82 tubes with quad
I will upload the video pretty soon.
The next step is to replace stock ECC 83 with Telefuken ECC 83.
The last step iis to replace quad stock 300b tube with Psavne Acme 300b tubes.
Now I get the impression that this Cayin 300b pp could be killer amp with Altec A7 after all tube rolling.
