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

RE: How reliable have your SET or SE tube amps been?

My understanding was that AN had some issues with a run of their caps having early failures (but that they fixed them for free with a better cap). I've had no problem with my OTO Phono SE bought back in 2003. I would not say they're exactly battleship build quality.

Chinese labor may be better - if they make a defective part they're probably taken out back and beaten. In the UK if you tell the employee he made a mistake you'll probably get sued for making them feel bad. I'm being facetious.
