I've torn apart my 1st 'real' system which was Wright Sound WPA3.5 2A3 SET based, with WLA12A and WPP200C phono. I've decided to go with a Promitheus Signature TVC and eventually a custom Promitheus SET. For now, I'll have to live with my little T-Amp. As nice as it is, I miss SET / tubes. My plan is exceedingly close to Cincy_Bob's 2nd rig.
A friend make the solid cherry shelves. Stainless steel otherwise. Will be selling soon due to WAF - contact me if you live near Belleville so I can que you when I list it.

Very nice performance for the used price

Works wel, but would prefer "quantifyable" VTA adjustments

Promitheus Signature TVC
On order and awaiting production of double c-core based TVC
Milpai, sorry for the delay in responding. I have the Signature TVC using Nicholas "Big Mommas" large double C-cores, which he doesn't advertise on his website. I like them very much indeed. I've moved and am currently in a temporary residence and don't have my phono hooked up, sadly. Nicholas has been working on a pair of custom Signature 300B transformer-coupled SETs for me for over half a year, and I haven't heard from him in a while, so I'll have to check to see how the development is going. Take care, Stephen
