What issue had the Natalie Stone article? Can you tell me more?About your 17 watt amp, I have learned what you mean there. I like my Paramours and Akhilesh's 45 amp sounds great too. But I have really been smitten with push-pull amps having a little bit more power. Both are good, and I'd like my next experience to be to spend some time with a SET having a transmitter tube, hoping to get the best of both worlds.
