[Amps] QRO or Commander

[Dino Darling]

There is a little history between these two companies too.  One 
became two and they split because of differences of opinions.  I know 
for a long time there was info on one of the sites about the split 
but I would only be guessing at the reason now.  It had the 
appearance of being friendly and only over a difference of company philosophy.

Without any name calling or bashing, what IS the correct story?

The Command Tech uses Eimac triodes (3CX800A7) and the QRO uses 
Svetlana Russian tetrodes (4CX800A)

Since they spawn from the same egg at one time, my guess is that both 
sell a quality product.  Over time, the QRO will cost less to 
maintain because of the cost of tubes.  The QRO also requires less 
drive power.  But there is something to say about the ruggedness of 
the Eimac triode.  I'd be happy with either one for multiple reasons.

Sorry I was of NO HELP!
