Hello,
I don't quite understand the construction principle.
Why you now use Kt sockets as preamp and 300b as output stage.
The parallel with the Euforia is definitely there with the 6AS7G and 6SN7 sockets.
I am glad that they thought one step further and were able to implement KT & 300B.
As an Euforia owner you start swearing when you see the tube prices although most of them were standard tubes at that time.
I had a hybrid amplifier built with 2 6SN7 sockets and the amplifier is relatively close to the Euforia for a fraction of the money.
And in some ways even better.
Even if the comparison is a bit lame because of the Otl and hybrid amplifier design.
What I actually wanted to say is
Firstly:
I would have liked to see an amplifier that is cleanly constructed and only equipped with a common tube type where tubes are still affordable.
Especially 300b are not cheap.
Secondly:
It might also be more accessible for people if it remains affordable also amplifier-wise in the purchase.
Thirdly: It looks technically good, but the price and where Feliks wants to go is justified somewhere, but not affordable for everyone, so many customers will drop out, which is a shame.
Fourthly, a slimmed-down version of the Envy might be great.
For my part, from a personal point of view, I won't buy it.
I'd rather have one built, especially if there was a concept.
Since the first reports won't come until next year, I'm also curious about what Feliks will say.
About the Auris, yes you are right, but technically the Auris is a few years old again.
That could be a disadvantage for it, because it looks like Feliks has done a good job.
I find 3 outputs a bit much, especially XLR.
I would have liked to see a more advanced crossfeed circuit.
