I offered to be of assistance, as I have a little experience in these matters, but assistance is not appreciated so I will be leaving the Kingdom of Romy for more productive environments.

where did this come from are you crazy your master have eventually took over you?

This is Romy's site, so I suppose in the Kingdom of Romy only single-stage high-gm amps sound good, and the 6E5P is the "perfect" high-gm tube, and that is that.

Ironically you are so much off. I have no vision on the subject; in fact the whole notion of DHT vs. single-stage high-gm amps is created by you. My quest was my about my specific single-stage Milq vs. DHT, there is different if you can see it.

At the end of the day, he tried it and came to a personal conclusion. I also tried it and came to a personal conclusion. Romy is still just farting into the air.

At this point the person who is farting into the air is you. You did not say that you trued you’re a single-stage approach, at list you did not pass any sharable comments about your observations of the result in order the people who you would like to learn were able to make own assumption about the sincerity of your findings. You pretty much bark conclusion but they worth as much as anyone’s else barking - I do not think that you care about my conclusion if I do not provide you with soothing that resonates with what YOU know is truth is. However, you were the people who during initial introduction of you position brought the evidence: “However, even Lamm is now using the GM70 for his $140,000 statement amplifier.” nl, I am sorry those arguments is not soothe that sane people bring up. Not to mention that I might hit under the belt and reply that “many people around (and it is fact) the world who can afort the most sophisticated, kinkiest and advanced DHT through their DHT away after they were exposed to Lamm ML2.0.” Oh, did I mention that it was IDHT?

Your 6E5P tube is not so special. People have been making WE437 spud amps since the 1960s. There is a class of amps that use a high-gm tube driver and a DHT output. Gordon Rankin has done this for about twenty years, and still does. However, I would suggest moving away from the high-gm driver, simply because the point is to try something new.

The 6E5P/6E6P and WE437/6C45P have absolutely nothing in common besided the people who did not deal with them decided to label them as "high-mu tubes". Hey, the WE437 and 811 tubes are probably the same as well, the both have grass… The really is that thee is a lot of special about the 6E5P/6E6P. it is completely up to you to discover it. in contrary to you I do not feel insulted if you do not support my poinjt of view…

  I will reproduce Jim de Kort's findings with the 437 spud, which roughly mirrors my own results. He used an amorphous Tribute transformer.

Thanks, for posting it. It was interning but absolute not educational in my view. I do not know who Jim de Kort is but leading a dairy of a person with a shovel who decided to turn over all sand in Sahara juts because he has no map where the treasures are. This is a typical DIY syndrome – I do not like those. The Jim de Kort say nothing about sound, nothing about own objective, nothing about what he is would like to accomplish, nothing about why he want to accomplish it. He has the damn solder gun and ability to solder – it never was enough to make sound.

  Even a single tube performing all the tasks can't come close to my three tubes per channel DHT amp system. There is no getting around the immense difference in sound. Yes, the 437A and 6S45P sound incredible and perform a unique task, but compared to a DHT it really can't hold water. I was doubtful about the comparisson before, but now I am fully convinced. Even three stages of (good) DHT's can't be beaten by a circuit using only one IHT.

And It is possible that you are correct – I just do not know and it looks you are not able to provide more justification of your view beside your desire for your readers to kiss you in your ass just because you express own views. That is fine; after all it is poorly voluntary sharing. You might be correct – but I would like to get my own answers, similar that if this subject were your curiosity then you would not be satisfied with my answers. I also do not belie that you experiments were “kosher” (let start from the fact that you used apparently used 6C45P, which is very crapy tube, partially as an out tube – many Russians build headphones with it). My quest is very limited and and I do not care what can't and can hold water compare to what.  I have Milq sound that I am comfortable. The recent 300B amp that I tried did have some minor tonal advantage that kind of evaporated when Macondo was injected. The DHT amp did have the “pace randomness” advantage, something that you with all your apparent DHT experience did not know, or might be do not know or perhaps will not even know. I did appreciate this DHT’s randomness a lot and I would like my amp to be able to do the trick. Do not worry it will. If my 6E5P/6E6P driver will not be able to handle it then I will try the DHT – I have no agenda in it. it is possible that the randomness  did come from the DHT, even though I have no evidence about it as no other DHT user repost it. I just need to learn how to make DHT if I got for it to sound as accurate, as “clean” as dynamic as my 6E5P/6E6P…
