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

RE: What he said!

Hello rws,
You have gotten some very good and wise replies. At this stage you're in, educate yourself via reading articles and reviews of SET amplifiers. Be patient and you'll steadily develop a fund of basic knowledge. The biggest factor for success with SETs is selecting the proper speaker match. Wrong speaker and you'll just experience failure and frustration.

With the right speaker match the listening experience and long term happiness can be superb. IMO any of the true DHT tubes can sound wonderful. This will depend on the builder/designer talent, part quality(particularly output transformer) and of course implementation. Take your time and read. Despite the relatively small genre of SET amplifiers, there are many good choices available, patience is an asset.
Charles,
