It's most interesting to me to learn about these amplifiers from someone with such intimate knowledge that comes from what appears to be a decades long relationship with these things!
Relatedly, I read elsewhere on the web a couple of reviews of classic vs modern ST 70s -- "modern" meaning the short run of poorer quality amps made after the company was bought out.
They concluded that the modern ones weren't very good, but iirc, one of those two articles seemed completely unaware that there were upgrade versions, conversions, and kits around to be had!
I'd like to see one of the major Audio mags do a story on "Ecologically sustainable audio", focussing on the Dynaco and equipment like it, if there is any. Gear that stands the tests of time and evolution and proves sustainable!
