Vacuum Tube Amp and iTunes

[Mister G]

Anybody using vacuum tube stereo amps for playing digital music from a computer?

Go ahead. If you like the way it sounds, do it. Until I pulled my Conrad Johnson out to do some maintenance, that was the only amp I used for years and I don't have a surround setup. In fact, A-Open had a sound card with 12AX7 tubes on it, at one time.

Yes, tubes and itunes = great sound.

Tubes still rule. Well, in some type of warm meaning (like a lightbulb).

Speaking of Conrad Johnson, check this review of Conrad-Johnson Classic Vacuum Tube Preamplifier with Phono Stage.

Cool man. Or is it: Warm man.
