Dedicated circuit. And then all your stuff.Well, sure, Duke, it has to be. People talk of bi-amped or tri-amped, well, I guess this would be quad-amped, in other words, four amplifier stages, a mixture of custom built consumer units and a few pieces of pro audio thrown in. To do music right, you need tubes circuits for everything over about 80-120 Hz, and solid state for everything below 80 Hz. Tubes don't do bass well and vise versa. So you need both. Transistors do square waves well because they act like switches.
Since the interest is here, here is a photo from 2015 that I've posted here before that shows part of my system, the main control rack at the main listening position where you operate the stereo from.

I do get what you're saying about the tone levels though. I lernt summin' today.

What about sine wave, isn't it smoother?
