Now we're talking!

Romy, I have long nodded in agreement with your observations about the critical nature of "plate loading".  Meanwhile, my own recent experiments have shown that dialing in voltage and current is just as Big a Deal with SS as it is with tubes.  Those who merely accept the "factory settings" are (potentially) missing out.

BTW, the B2 was idesigned from the start as a "cult" amp, with the whole "clean-sheet" design and Bushido/nutso attention to detail that truly set it apart.  Plus, it was Really Expensive!  Talk about your wet dream: this and the Esprit were the stuff of Cult Nerd Fantasies, Back in the Day.
