SONIC COMMENTS:
5AS4, as you described, seemed to open up the soundstage and improved the headroom, more macro-dynamic, just seemed to be stronger and more forceful. Bass was significantly more extended and detailed at
the same time. Tonal balance was still even, despite improved bass, suggesting to me my previous rectifier tube was not as extended.
