Initial impressions are... good not great. Bass is bloated and kinda boomy, and it seems kinda... muted. Of course, I have 45 minutes on it, so it's got some considerable burn in to do. |

I've not fully understood how the jumper settings affects tube compatibility..."ef95/ef92 family" are all driver tubes...so does the jumper interfere only with drivers ? |
