The conclusion can be only one – valve amplifier Egg-Shell Classic 9 WLT and Bodnar speakers Hornton is a set which will be taken sound much closer to gates of the real high end, because his sound is exceptionally euphonious and engaging, colourful and permeated – royal and beautiful. It is a synergetic duet by which no music lover will pass indifferently. The above set entirely convinced me and enthralled – magical playing. I can highly recommend this set with the pure heart.
