That episode last night with the Soundgarden track suggests patience with the Amperexes is called for. Up until now I'd not thought the bass quite as strong with these tubes as with the JJs. Guess I'll give them some more time (which they'll certainly get, it looks like, since I want to hear them with the still-absent 301) and see how things go.
