Been listening to the Sansui AU-317 and the B1K. The Sansui is more laid back, smoother with more bass but not as defined at the low end. The B1K is cleaner, more air, more detailed and punchier. I'm not getting any midtone boost with my setup with the Nutube compared to the Sansui. More clarity is what i'm noticing mostly. Different feel- I like both amps. Listening with NCore 252MP and Goldenear BRX. Using the B1K with wall wart power supply and the SMPS DC Filter kit. Upgrading the power supply might improve things again.
