Not this again, it's not a tube amplifier (or receiver). It's a transistor amplifier made to 'look' like a tube amplifier.

^ It is a tube amp, just with a gain/driver stage that's transistor based. That still gives it the tube warmth and harmonics some are looking for but with a higher power:price ratio.

Just pretend it a McIntosh that does't break the bank. I 'm confident other people has been down this route with many other electronics.

That's backwards, the driver/pre stage is tube, the amp is transistor.

I connected this to my CD player and blasted my favorite REM song. They sang "don't go back to Rockville"
