Oh yeah! A lot more expensive! But I'm not a tube roller. At least not yet, haha..
The Upcoming KT170 will fit in the 300 but not the 400. Not sure how it will sound but it will give more power.

oh man i'm Jelly. I really want a Rockna. (I'm using the yggy A2)
I was great in HT mode. I sadly just replaced it with a NAD Master M28 because of wife drama. She was sick of turning on a off the tubes.. blah.Hey Guys,
I'm on the verge to buy an EVO 300 integrated but I wanted to know if any of you have tried to use it in HT (home theater) mode?
Also, does it really take about 1 minute to have the system ready, or should I could on more than that?
Looking at all the reviews, I have no doubts listening to some music with an EVO will be incredible, I was wondering if watching a movie would give the same kind of feeling.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Cheers,
Anthony
I changed the 2 center 12AU7s to Mullard 10M Gold Pinoh man i'm Jelly. I really want a Rockna. (I'm using the yggy A2)
You changed to KT150s but left the stock 12AU7s? I replaced mine with Brimar CV4003 - but i'm still on the hunt for something "warmer"
I'm looking for the 12AU7 version of the 6SN7 CBS 5692. (which i'm guessing is some old Mullard... )
Where did you get them? (cost?) Do you think they would help tame the Utopia?I changed the 2 center 12AU7s to Mullard 10M Gold Pin
I didn't hear of any problems on the evo 400 (or others in that series)I am a budding headphone enthusiast
Trying to figure out exactly how good the headphone amplifier is on the EVO 400
What stand alone tube headphone amplifier(s) does the EVO 400 headphone amplifier equal/exceed performance wise?
Any major headphone amplifier problems on the EVO 400?
I used Electro Harmonix Gold Pins, but am also interested in Gold lions and mullard reissuesOrdered some Radiotechnique 12AU7 (only for the 2 driver tubes) Sean at Upscale Audio suggested that i might like the sound. (I did point out that I didn't like the Brimar CV4003)
For the last week i've been using the Golden Lion in all the 12au7 slots. I'm digging them and they will be my baseline. Not very coloring and neutral.
Yeah Gold Lion KT88 and KT77 are also great reissues.hmm.. i've never tried any of the Electro stuff. In general i'm been impressed with the Gold Lions. Not just for the 12au7, but also with 6992. They are a really good bet for anyone non-NOS tubes.
(of course people should get tubes for places your trust that TEST the tubes and pair patch. Upscale Audio is good. So is tubedepot. I'd never trust some reason person on ebay. tubemonger seems ok too, but they will sell you crappy sounding tubes.. not broken.. just bad choices. Like Anything Tesla yucky)
