I have been following this thread to gain information regarding replacement of a ShuGuang 274B rectifier on my Atlantic TRP. I swapped the stock EL34's for a matched pair of Genalex KT 66's and I am quite pleased. This has caused me to wonder about matching tubes between the Atlantic and my other set of tubed equipment, my integrated amp, a Primaluna with stock tubes.
Is there any correlation or should there be between the tubes in the DAC and the tubes in the integrated amp? Does the DAC control the soundscape or do two components integrate together to shape the sound?
