juniper8 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I am interested in hearing tube amplification and I found this simple little amp. Would this be a good start? http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/ele/1881121425.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank1938 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It's a mono amp. For what do you intend to use it? Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juniper8 Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 I just wanted to hear a tube amp and see if it suits my taste. If I can only use one speaker I think it would be fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank1938 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 O.K. but don't let that amp be a guide for choosing tube over solid state. A "good" tube amp will be much more impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense! I figured that if this provides 10% of the 'tube sound" at least I can get some type of understanding as to the differences? If this amp is so bad and won't provide even that maybe I should pass? I have been to Cortland, love the "Townies"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
