So are you a rectifier believer yet? If I recall correctly your GOTL was a HEXFRED design.
Pros and cons of solid state or tube rectifications. Tubes adds their tone in a nice way by way of voltage drops. Solid states are cleaner, quieter although at this level, they are all quiet.
So for my GOTL I told Glenn I would go with HEXFRED because I didn't know about rectifiers then and FRED sounded good to me.
For Odyssey, it's old school all the way, so naturally tube rectification.
For Telemachus, my amp will have dual solid state or tube rectification via a switch. Telemachus is an amp where old school meets new school. It will use Monolith Magnestics output transformers with covers. https://www.monolithmagnetics.com/
It's suppose to have fast transients with astounding clarity and 300b tube goodness. So eagerly waiting for next April.
