To my ears the Tacks sit somewhere in the middle of WE & ER, and with certain drivers actually betters them! My ears my chain.

I haven’t heard Elrogs, but I thought Taks were more solid sounding than WE. More you are there, on the stage. Very real sounding. I thought WE were softer sounding, but not much. Taks are a bit more present/extended both top and bottom, midrange is not as forward (or magical) as with WE. WE has amazing, cavernous soundstage, Taks more intimate. My ears, my system, all those caveats.

I read lots of good things abotu the Taks so I am curious

It’s going to be a backup for the pair I have now. Unless in the future someone has a need for it.

You should ;D

Yeah, delisting. They're too good. As much as I love the Elrogs, having the ability to alter between softer and bigger sound Vs cleaner more technical Elrog sound is too valuable to lose.

Having only electro Harmonix to fall back on isn't good enough for me. They're great standalone but once you've heard we and elrog you can't go back really unless money is a factor.

Exactly. Smart move.

I come with excellent news guys.

Thomas Mayer finished his new tube production for the Munich High End and next up are the production runs for the 300B Variants, starting with TM-300B !

He accepts direct orders for the TM-300B in April and will only produce as much as ordered, plus a little for potential warranty cases.
Price within EU is 4000,- € for the matched pair including shipping and VAT.
Price international is 3500,- € excl. VAT but including insured shipping. Declared price will be the true value so consider TAX/Customs on top.

Since he made bad experience with waiting lists this time around he only accepts orders with payments up front.

Design has been slightly altered and they are now named Thomas Mayer TM-300B instead of ELROG TM-300B.

I asked him him wether it's possible to turn the print 90 degrees for Envy users and will report back with the answer.
Update: It is not possible to turn the print unless ordering a huge amount of tubes, he didn't mention an exact quantity but it apparent that he meant full production runs like the Feliks Audio branded ones.

Sidenote: It might potentially be the last TM-300B run depending on how his new tubes will be received. TMs have always been meant for his own amplifiers and if customers of those prefer the new custom tubes then there might be no need for TM-300B anymore.

After TM-300B will come a ER300B production run followed by ER300B-MO.
