Workshy

I’m also new to this forum but been an avid Klipsch owner ever since I inherited a Heresy i a few years ago. I’m now using a Wil Vincent Dynaco ST70 & very happy with its performance. Prior to this amp I was using a solid state Citation 16 with an HK preamp. That too sounded good with the Heresy but my goal was to go with tubes on my dad’s speakers. Couple years ago I replaced my HK preamp with a hybrid Counterpoint 1000. The sound definitely improved. My next goal was to be able to pair this with a decent tube amp. I was fortunate to have friends let me try their tube amps - from Quicksilver, Conrad Johnson & Cary. I was also able to try a Monoprice hybrid integrated. Spent a number of hours listening to each amp. All of them were very good. Then I came across of an original Dynaco ST70 from a local stereo shop. The owner was playing it with a La Scala paired with an old Fisher preamp. Man that sounded good. I then looked around where I can get a Dynaco ST70 & came across Wil Vincent’s piece. A few calls to him with lots of questions then I pulled the trigger & ordered one. He didn’t make any promises that his amp was better than the others but he was confident I will like it. He was correct. Sorry for my lengthy post. Just want to share my experience on this wonderful piece. On a side note, one of my best friend just recently bought a 1983 Heresy that was moded with Crites’ gear. We are planning to do an A/B comparison test with my original Hersesy using my stereo equipment. Can’t wait.
