Sorry guys, been too busy listening to them I'll post pics tomorrow, but they're sounding fantastic.
They replace a 300B integrated, the sound with these is like the room is about 3x the size. Ie it's a big sound, without losing out to anything else. I'm loving the ability to switch from SE to PP, and dialling different values of negative feedback. I've also got some 16ohm speakers I sometimes use so having the ability to switch from 8 to 16ohm at the back is also fantastic. I change my stuff around a lot so the versatility of the Manleys is unmatched!
I'm still using a solid state pre so hopefully the Manley pre arrives by Xmas. But I have about 100hrs on the amps now so starting to get serious. I've also ordered some SRA platforms to keep them on, which should further improve things.
The amps have a very quiet background for a valve amp, I'm hoping the pre is the same.
