So I take it you like the Ella. I've been looking at the Ella, the Billies, and the Paramour. My speakers are inefficient, something like 86db, and need more than 3 watts of the Paramour, but maybe 9 wpc is OK from the Billies. The Billies cost more, and if they don't work it would be a lot of money down the drain, or having the hassle of selling something that is not factory built. The Ella has the power and costs less, but isn't audio nirvana like an SET amp.

I've been going around in circles with this for a couple of months now.

One question for Brian. Is the design much different from the classic ST-70? Or is it just using newer, possibly better parts. I'm new to much of this and get the feeling the push-pull amps all have the same basic design. You can barely get an ST-70 on E-bay that'll cost less with all of the mods you'll probably want.
