Definitely have the Opus in there too. Yeah I kind of have a little bit of both ... maybe more on the 64 but who's counting

Thanks for your input. The Vsg's that I have probably won't goes as far as the padron. But its good to hear that after a couple more years they still "shine" ... that's probably the amount of time that they will last in my humi.

Don't get me wrong, they don't get worse with age...they just mellow out. I feel they don't get any more complex as CCs seem to do with age. Just my  |
Thanks for your experience. I guess to someone a more "mellowed out" PAM 64 could be great or not so great. And to someone else a fresh kick to it may be better or not so better. That's why its hard to discuss these issues. When it comes to taste there are so many factors involved. Glad to hear of your long resting PAN 64's. Hope you continue to enjoy them
I will be down this road sooner or later with the PAM's 26/64's
