Hi Gang, I currently own a Centurion amp with brand new tubes in mint shape. I am considering buying the Titan 425 gold edition #49 advertised earlier on here. I've weighed the pro's and cons of both, but still can't decide. I know the 3cx800 tubes are expensive and scarce, and that some parts such as the plate current meter are no longer available. However, I like the lower drive requirement and legal limit power of the 425 gold. Also the 425 is somewhat of a collector's item. The centurion is still produced, 3-500zg's are still inexpensive, and it is a forgiving amp, but it takes 100w drive for 1200 watts.

I'd like some input as to which one to go with as I can't have both, Hi Hi. 73, Todd-KD7EFQ
