Waamamps or Bottlehead Stereomour 2A3 / 45 ???

SET Asylum

Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

Since Jeff Korneff is no longer building amps, my current shortlist is the Waamamps and Bottlehead Stereomour.

Between these two, which would you select for a 2A3 / 45 and why?

Also, I'm open to other suggestions -- my budget is around $1,000.

Related question: my speakers are 98 dB (manufacturer's rating). I'm almost certain that rating is "in room" as opposed to anechoic, unfortunately.

I know a 2A3 works well with these speakers in my room from experience. But would a 45 also work well? My average listening level is only around 80 dB so *I think* I'm OK with a 45.
