Ain't gonna happen! This amp is better than the tweaked ASL MG15, way ahead of the Almarro and better in the upper mids than the Stoetkit altho' not quite as tight in the bass. Single-ended triode EL-34's are the BOMB! Get ahold of the ASL and swap out it's stock KT-88 for an EL-34 and hear the difference. The Norh is lacking in dynamics and a bit rolled off on top but for the $$$, the convenience and on a warm day, the low heat signature, it's way excellent. Loaner, my ass!
