Your speakers aren't very efficient at 93 dB. That might rule out most lower power amplifiers, depending on musical taste and listening environment. Also, you need to be aware that damping factor can be very poor with no negative feedback. I added about 6dB of feedback to my 211 SETs for that reason. The most significant contributor to single-ended sonics are the power supply and output transformer. Quality is expensive in both these areas, and this is where the cheaper brands cut corners. The far East guys are expert at skin-deep cosmetics, but not so much where it counts. I suggest you take a look at Bottlehead, and go from there. Good luck with your search!
