Greetings all,

I am not now nor have I ever been affiliated with Grant Fidelity.  I bought these bottles for full freight.  No reviewer discount.

I've had my Paramount V1.1 for a bit now and have run several sets of new glass in them.  They came with the stock EH 300B pair and for the cost they were OK.  I had a set of the TJ 300B/n globe tubes.  These are the so-called mesh plate but it is really a perforated plate.  Gives a very nice glow at night and is really a marvelous sounding tube for the Paramounts.  Solid bass, glorious midrange and clear transparent highs.  A very revealing bottle.

The Psvane 300B's were brought to my attention as I have used their small drivers since Grant Fidelity started introducing them about 3 years ago.  All of mine are still running with zero failures, very little deviation from when I tested them when new and all have been driven for many, many hours.  8 to 16 hours a day is the norm here...

On to the Psvane Treasures.  They were phenomenal straight out of the box and have settled in nicely.  They have an interesting look and are quite boring compared to the TJ's.  They are just better in every way sound wise.  Highs are clearer if that is possible.  Mids are wonderful and the bass appears to be a bit deeper and tighter.  Much better control.  They are not cheap but they are not priced like KR Audio or NOS WE 300B (are they mythological or what?)  These are worth a listen.  Their engineers are doing things in R&D that no one else is doing.
