This evening, a couple of guys were over and we were cooking out on the grille. My son pulls out one of his CD's and pops it in the player attached to the Paramours and the seven π's. In an instant, I think back and realize just how often this has happened over the past few months.

Michael could have chosen the system in the other room, which has a pair of ten π horns on a huge power amp. But my seventeen-year-old son is listening to the system with the SET amp with increasing regularity. And I've noticed that his friends are doing it too.

Just last year, he wanted the boom-boom subwoofer for the car. Now it seems that he's growing more fond of SET's on horns. And I haven't really influenced him, other than to have the system available and setup. I wouldn't have expected Michael or his friends to use the system. In fact, I was under this impression so strongly that the times I've noticed them using tube amps, I've assumed it was just a matter of convenience - being in the same room - or maybe it was a curiosity or a novelty. But that doesn't explain their repeated choice of triodes.

There really can be only one explaination. This is a group of high-school kids that are diggin' their favorite music on tubes and horns. Go figure.
