Today I received my pre-owned Taboo MK III with USAF 596 rectifier, 6P15P-ER Military Edition output tubes and Amperex 6922 Pinched Waist.
My previous amp was a Little Dot MK III with Voshkhod tubes. I loved that thing and thought that any improvement another amp would make only would be subtle.
Boy, was I wrong!
I hear details I've never heard before, the sound is SO spacious, no big emphasis on any frequencies that I can tell (the Little Dot with Voshkhods especially had an emphasis on the frequencies where bassguitars are). I now realise how muddy my previous amp sounded. Also, the sibilance in all songs so far is either far more gentle or even completely gone!
I'm really re-discovering music yet again! Some songs have fantastic subtleties. This amp sounds so refined!
The Lucid mode is very interesting and it does give a "Wow"-factor to some instruments and voices, but I first want to discover everything in the normal setting.
This REALLY is what music should sound like!
Sorry for sounding like such a fanboy, but I really am astonished!
