Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Is it just me?

There is no reason to fear tube failure, tubes are very reliable. I have
been running DIY tube amps extensively for several years and to date
I have had only one tube fail. That was a brand new tube that failed on
initial start up, most likely something wrong with it from the factory.

As Crazy Dave pointed out below, you may want to listen to some tube amps
before buying one. Some people like the sound (I do) but some people don't. They are not cheap, especially if you buy off the shelf.
Kits are cheaper if you feel up to the task of slinging some solder.

Good luck

Cal
