Maybe I'm missing something here? The last time I bought a brand new amp, prior to the MA, was over 20 years ago. It was standard practice that amps were fitted with decent valves by the manufacturers. In the interveneing period, it seems that companies, such as Marshall, now find it acceptable to sell, well, let's be frank, shit! Would you buy a car, knowing that the engine was unfit for purpose & required replacement? People work themselves into a frenzy for NOS or vintage valves, the ones that were standard issue with the amps as they came. Why can't Marshalls come equipped valves of similar quality now? I'm amazed people are prepared to accept this contemptuous approach by, what used to be, a reputable business.
