The hum on my Taboo seemed to settle down a bit last night after having the amp on for several hours. It was still audible, but less prominent than when I first turned it on. It's too early for sound impressions (which I'm rubbish at anyway), but so far it seems a bit less warm than my V200. This means reaching for the HE-500 a bit more often than the HD 800 at the moment, which I suppose isn't too strange as the amp was specifically designed for orthos.
It's such a magnificent machine. I love the quirky boutique hand-made look and feel of it. The fact that there are absolutely no instructions in the box. That none of the switches or plugs are labelled. That the volume knob is perilously close to the scorching hot input tube.
