Thanx mates! Someone's sellin a 1 year old Opera Consonance M100plus for about GBP357 here. (New stated as GBP503). Reckon it would give me that kinda sound? I have still not gotten off my butt to pay seller a visit as he stay not too near from me (50 min away by train,thats far for someone in a small country   ) According to reviews, not really. BTW dynamics are fine, just want that sweet warm old tube cosy sound
