Mike McKelvy has now endorsed WAVAC ampliers for those people who like
tube amplifiers and have the wherewithal to purchase them.

Especially if you like oodles of distortion. Come to think of it that
pretty much descibes you.


Not only are they selling for half of his stated idea of their cost,
he says that they are like every tube amp he's ever heard, only more
so, and he has found tube amps to offer a significant difference over
the standard SS amp.

Please provide the quote for that. I have said many times that tube amps
can and sometimes obvioulsly do sound different from SS, SET's being the
prime example.


You just said it.

You also said this:

"I have listened to tube amps before, all of them measured better than
the WAVAC. All of them sounded worse that any SS amp I've ever
heard.."

If by worse, you didn't mean different, then you might wish to
explain...



And since he's now on record as saying that you don't even have to
listen to them and that you don't need a dbt or abx trial to
confidently choose them, you can feel confident that they will offer
you the ultimate in tube amplification.

You should work for Atkinson, neither of you seems to be able to tell the
truth.


I would suggest that Mr. Atkinson might find this libelous.


Since both of you have a habit of distorting what other people say, I doubt
it.

BTW, are you now saying that you DO need to perform a dbt or abx
trial? Which is it, Mr. McKelvy? You seem completely confused at this
moment.

The only one confused is you. I've stated many times when an ABX comparison
is useful.

For something like the WAVAC it would not be, since given how it measures,
you'd have to be deaf not to notice how much different it sounds from
regular amps.
