Hi mate, love the new setup as well as the KT-120 v KT-150 v EL-34 description and how everything is dictated by your mood and the record being played. Did you have any experience with KT-88 too and, if so, how did those feel/sound in your system?

Thank you. I have had KT88s in the past in both a Primaluna Prologue Two and also a Dialogue Two. Haven't yet tried a set of them in this new set up. Overall I always liked the KT88 sound, though from memory, I think the KT-120 is just a little better version of the KT88. Similar money too. If you have an amp that will accept both, the next time you re-tube I would try the KT-120 and see what you think. The KT-120 will offer a bit more power and cleaner more linear sound too. Bass will offer more clarity and cleaner bottom edges. Not that KT88s are "squishy" just that KT-120s are that much clearer and a little less "tubey".

Added a Krell S300i to drive the Guarneri's today.
300 watts into 4 ohm load. Lots of current. |

No, not yet.
Strongly considering selling it though. I really like the presentation of this amp with the Guarneri's. |

Updated photos.
Sold PrimaLuna HP and stuck with Krell S300i for now. Running everything balanced. Also moved Guarneri's much closer together and closer to listening seat. Almost a triangular setup. Finally took the owners manual suggested setup to heart and am still surprised how much wall bounce I had been getting previously. Always learning and trying new stuff...
