Maybe I'm wrong but I really feel that I have arrived at a place that I will be at for a long time. The Devore, Shindo, Well Tempered, EMT system works so well together. I have just put in new from Shindo NOS EL34 (philips dynawatt) tubes into the Montrachet.
Last things to get are to find Shindo Silver IC between TT and phono, and between Phono and Auriges.
Nice system. I have listened to both VAC and Shindo and prefer VAC. It is more transparent and neutral. Faster transients. Shindo has great flowvand decay. Disclosure- i own vac amp and preamp.
