How many Cortese owners do we have in this forum?
My initial infatuation with the Cortese, the first time I heard it in Matt's San Francisco space proved NOT to be an infatuation.
The moment I heard it, I thought "this amp was voiced with my definition of delicious sound in mind."
Some 3 years later, it's still treating me to delicious sound 4-6 hours a day (I am lucky enough to have moved the system in my lab/workspace.)
I should add that the original F2A tubes that Matt gave me are still going strong ... by now, at the rate I am using it, most other tube amps I've owned would have required 1 or 2 replacement.
I know we have a few Cortese owners (both of the new and old version) and I was interested in getting a tally.
If you own a Cortese (or even if you used to and have moved on) let us know ... and share some of your thoughts about this amazing 10W wonder.
