How about Quad ESL57? Magnepan MG1s?
Many tubed amps and/or receivers run rings around most of today's
solid state "surround" junk.
This person is Tom Deacon the executive producer of the entire Great
Pianists of the century set from Phillips(They licensed from
everybody)
Why am I not surprised?
These guys love knobs, bells and whistles.
If it hasn't got the latest DSP technology in it, it must be crap.
I am not sure whether CDs sound the way they do to please the masses
or because of incompetence. With statements like the above I lean
toward incompetence. How else could Bill Inglot become tops in his
field His R n R stuff is abominable but did you hear his Jazz for
Atlantic. Giant Steps of mids and highs. Not Trane
From what I've heard from my recording friends, it's all about time
and money savings.
Even the guys who wish to deliver a good product, can't do so because
they have to (re) master the 500th version of Vivaldi's "Four Seasons"
in a $10 bargain pack at the mall in about a day or so.

"SOA of a KT88? Sufficient."
You must be psychic. I just posted a response in which I point out that I used
to run a pair of ESL 57's with a Fisher 400 receiver and the sound was truly
excellent.
