Hello,
The tubes alone do not always make the difference.
I have two amplifiers that are completely different.
One is the Feliks Euforia and the other is a self-built hybrid amplifier where both use 6SN7 and I sometimes hear significant differences where the Euforia is better or worse than the hybrid amplifier and vice versa.
The other side is that on the Euforia I exchanged the standard Mundorf capacitors for Vcaps TFTF and experienced a real change where "lesser" 6SN7s really blossomed and were partly better than the cheaper tubes that can be found/obtained on the market.
Since then, I have personally become more cautious with such statements.
Especially the Euforia sounded better with tubes that didn't even cost 100$.
And that was just the 6SN7 socket, the 6AS7G socket is currently being processed in terms of caps replacement.
What I want to say is that such work can also help the amplifier. without wanting to dig too deep now.
And if a system is well-built, it contributes just as well to the cause.
I'm currently listening to the Little Dot 1+ in my bedroom again after a long time and have the feeling that it's an air pump.
Compared to the other 2 amplifiers in the media room.
