Default Cortese, but 300b

I am currently using a 300B Cortese. What a lovely amplifier. Throws a holographic sound stage even in my "real world" listening room, ie, my living room. Currently using Auditorium 23 Roiene speakers.

I have original Cetron 300bs on hand, but I am currently using a pair of Takatsuki 300b tubes. I would love to try a set of vintage Western Union 300b's but they are now crazy money.
