Welcome aboard Swabbie! I'm an old school tube guy and I too found much to love about the H10. Thank goodness that op-amp "swabbing" is much less expensive than tube rolling. That being said, you might want to try out some of the less expensive op-amp combinations like the 797/832 before popping for something as pricey as the Bursons. I haven't listened to the Bursons, so I can't say anything about whether the price matches the performance. If you can get the 797BRZ variant pre-mounted on an adaptor, I would definitely go for that over the 797ANZ. I got mine from Analog Metric in Hong Kong and the price for two shipped was only $26. Well worth the few extra bucks, in my opinion. http://www.analogmetric.com/goods.php?id=2030
Thanks for the warm welcome! I still own a few tube amps and I have the Feliks Audio Elise on on order right now. I can't get away from the glow.
Arrrrrrrrr...swabbing it is then.... I've ordered the 797/832 ANZ combo and the 797 BRZ from your link. I'm going to try some other combos mentioned here too. I'll wait on the Burson's though.
