NICE! If you are still driving those pair of Forte IIs, I would love to hear your comments on how they sound with the SE34I.3.

Thanks for sharing those lovely pics.

I love the way the Gold volume knob matches the Gold base of the EL34 treasures.

I am using this new amp with the Trapezium desktop speakers for now. After a couple of months, I will pull out the Forte II and give them a shot. My long term plan is to use the SE34I.32 with the Forte II.

It sounds good out of the box. All tubes installed are new. I am sure it will get better with time.

I did not realize how stunning the light colored wood base looks on these amps with the white tops. That is a ZEN amp next to it I suppose.

Yes. That is an SE84C+ in the picture next to the SE34I.32.

What kind of output tubes are those? And how would you compare them with the 'stock' JJ EL34's?

They are Psvane 6CA7 tubes. They were my first try at expensive Chinese tubes, and I will probably not buy them again. I am not sure that the high cost is worth it to me.

I did not order tubes with my amp. I have not compared them against any other tubes.

Those look a bit different from the Psvane 6CA7 TII tubes I just received from Grant Fidelity. Busterfree, are those the T series?

Yes. T series. Not the latest version.
