I don't consider myself an audio elitist, and have never heard a tube amp before in my life, nor was I marketed to one, but when I listened to one the first time, a very small one, it was very impressive. I'm not saying it's better than solid state, i'm just saying it sounds different.
I haven't had a chance to listen to tube gear, but I will one day. I reserve judgement on this one.

I've also seen electrical diagrams showing no electrical gain, but seeing as how ascend speakers are biwire capable, I'm curious as to why they would be there if they made no difference. Dave is obviously a smart guy, I'm sure they are there for a reason.
I would guess that Ascend makes the 340s biwireable because there are customers that like to have that ability.
