Been a few years since my tube rolling days. I always found the Tellies to be very resolute with perceived accurate harmonics. Excellent especially Ecc801s. In my components (Jadis Thor) I really found my sweet spots using them combined with Mullard Brimar or Amperex. YMMV
Thank you! How many hours has your system been playing, particularly the speakers? I think the overall sound is sensational...really spectacular. At the same time, I wonder if there might be a lessening but residual sense a 'tightness' from the speakers still needing a little more playing time.
Although not there in person, I intuitively feel this is a remarkable world-class system and cannot wait until the whole thing is fully bedded in!

Dont know if it is helpful, but my mono amps are hybrid with tube in and SS out. I found the Mazda 12AX7 NOS tubes to be spectacular. Also, Ron, your system looks great and I love reading about your thorough setup process! I have learned from this thread.
Sounds darn amazing over my headphones. Most of the other videos on WBF sound pretty bad and embarrassing, frankly, but you are posting a great sounding video. Congratulations, Ron, and congrats on your system!
I suppose you used real mikes for this recording, and not an iPhone?
This in-room recording even gives an idea of the resolution in the bass of those bass towers.
What if…???
All the vaccum tubes get a leakage - and suck all the air out from the room, so no soundwaves could be transported from the speakers to your ears.. and you starting to feel short of breath… * hova *… the sheer thoughts give me the creeps.., hahaha.
Agree. The whole video is good/video is bad is a fairly painfully dull argument at this point… clearly some of us can get some understanding out of them and others don’t… but who cares really in the big picture, it may all just reflect varying perceptual modalities.
For me better sharing a video on a shared medium like an iPhone than just believing some hyperbole filled self proclamation post about what is happening in someone’s systems… lord save us from night and day differences syndrome… I very much appreciate even a limited objective glimpse shared in Ron’s video. Btw very nice Ron! Sounding good!
