I think I've heard about Tru making some tube amps, and I've seen that Panasonic (gold, barf) tube HU.

Just wondering, aren't those tubes fragile? I always thought the shaking and jarring in a car would harm them in some way.

I was considering getting one for home, to try out. I'm trying to put together a nice 2 channel setup for home, trying to get away from all the car audio spending, damn addicting ****.

I haven't seen them yet though, they are a brand new line, but I could only imagine that they are going to sound great.

Make one in brushed aluminum anodized black and I'm in

I don't think I ever read the results of that shoot out on ECA, might have to do that (though I won't be getting rid of my 9255 anytime soon, my amps though, thats a different story).
