Psvane "ACME" are actually suburb.
I know a few people that own the ACME 2a3, and said they are better than EML Mesh 2a3. I personally own ACME 300B, and they're extremely airy, detailed, and massive soundstage. A tad light on bass, but that's the same problem EML mesh has too.
I also sold a 2a3 amp I owned, about a year ago. The buyer didn't want to buy my NOS 2a3. Not sure if you'd be interested, or how we would be able to link up (I can't send PM here). But I have a pair of #1 visseaux, #2 Westinghouse, #3 Fivre. All with < 300hr on them. I'd be willing to let them go for well under ebay prices.
Personal opinion, the NOS 2a3 I had handedly outperformed the JJ 2a3-40 I owned in terms of detail, air, soundstage, and nuance. JJ 2a3-40 had better bass and impact tho.
