In Reply to: vintage v contemporary high end amp posted by Tadlo on August 3, 2005 at 08:28:34:
when comparing vintage vs late-model amps of any configuration - SS or tubes.* Restoration costs for older gear to bring it up to as-new standards
* Quality of components surrounding the amp/receiver regardless of ageIn general, most of the circuit topologies are well-known from an engineering standpoint. The rest of it is a matter of design tradeoffs and engineering to specific price points.
