[QUOTE="Mars, post: 677412, member: 817"] From a manufacturer's side, all this complexity can be challenging. VU driver boards and VU circuitry :facepalm: And those little gadgets needs extra power supply taps and possibly generate noise that interferes with the sacred audio signal trying to find it's way to our ears and hopefully a happy place in our brain :drool: That said, I have an order for a 20 watt hif amp with VU meters. I'm going to go with the mechanical VU's here, but the difference between tube and mechanical meters are small from a constructor point of view. I would like to use those EM800's on an amp sometime. They seem to be readily available, and I like the bar indicator jumping up and down :cool: [IMG]http://www.tubeclockdb.com/images/stories/2011/mevu_stereo_em800.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
