..some backround information to the record.. Revolver is the seventh studio album of the British group The Beatles, which was released in Great Britain on August 5, 1966. In Germany, the album was already released on July 28, 1966; here, including the compilation albums, it was their eleventh album.In the USA, a version with only eleven instead of fourteen songs was released on August 5, 1966, here it was their 13th album. The British version of Revolver was released as a CD in the USA on July 21, 1987. The development that had begun with Rubber Soul continued with the work on Revolver. The Beatles spent more and more time perfecting their sound in the studio and trying out sonic possibilities. Among other things, they experimented with backward running tapes, as can be heard in the songs I'm Only Sleeping and Tomorrow Never Knows. Ken Townshend, a sound engineer at Abbey Road Studios, developed a recording process at the request of the Beatles that uses an artificial double track to create a slightly delayed or advanced image of a recording track (Automatic double-tracking, ADT for short). This method was used intensively on Revolver for the first time. Geoff Emerick also tried to make the bass and drum sound more dominant. While John Lennon had called Rubber Soul a "pot album" (pot = cannabis), he called Revolver the "acid album" (acid = colloquially the drug LSD), because the Beatles had meanwhile come into contact with LSD. The effects of the drug experiences were evident in the psychedelic pieces that the Beatles recorded for Revolver, which also became the forerunner of a new musical trend: psychedelic rock. It was mainly John Lennon and George Harrison who composed psychedelic songs at an early age. In the meantime Harrison had dealt more intensively with Indian music, which was reflected in his song Love You To. The sitar used in the song on it later became a trademark of psychedelic music. While the instrument was used sparingly on the song Norwegian Wood, it was the main instrument on Love You To.

At the time of the New Wave and the New Romantic sound, Depeche Mode had an incredible number of hits in Europe, especially in the discotheques with many extended mixes above 45 RPM. I couldn't stand it anymore because I had put on so much of Depeche Mode. This was one of my favorite songs ...Al cried out by Allison Moyet...btw...can´t see the linked video 😞

Decware tube concepts are really beautiful and sound amazing . Their ´re worth to have a deeper look into the range of products. IMO the answer is a push-pull KT 88 tube solution for your Heresy, because they controll the chassis in each level of volume and sound fantastic. YMTC ....
