Clinto YOU'VE actually run the nu-forces at home? or was that a friends?, I thought you were a TE Linear man at heart (with the built in passive pre.)

Hence your reluctance with them maybe?

They are some stonkingly good passives pre's if you listen. The AS is one of them.

I'd try a Belles 150 ref, superb amp easily dispatches the nu forces, but has a rightness & texture to the sound.

Mind you I've yet to hear a valve amp sound complete across the entire audio spectrum and produce the goods with out coloured horns or high efficency trade off loudspeakers , one trick ponies are valves imo, some  very good I'll grant you, but just can't span the devide.

Now Clinton, can tell us why you think the Tom Evans Linear (inbuilt passive pre) doesn't do it for you.

In a correctly set up system they make some beautiful sounds, so could speculate as to why you feel its not gelling at Chez Clinton?
