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

Haven't built anything for well over a year....

I came to the end of the road with amps after about 30 years building. I found I liked the sound of the 4P1L more than all the other tubes I was using (26, 300b etc), found I could make a PSE amp with two stages of 4P1L, built it all in filament bias with Lundahl interstage and OPTs and that's it. Best amp I ever built.

Can't think of how to improve it so I just listen to it. I bought 150 of the 4P1L so got that covered. Drive it with a Mac Mini through a battery powered ES9023 DAC into Mark Audio Alpair 10s and there's nothing much I want to change. DACs will get better and I'll upgrade at some point, but I hardly have much to post about any more.

Don't know who else just ended up satisfied with what they have.
