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

RE: How much power do you need?

Yes, a few years back a friend and I stopped by the Sanders room at RMAF. One or two thousand watt per channel amps as I remember. Listening chairs lined up in a single file line centered between the speakers. Immediately I lost interest because I personally have no use for a speaker that needs a thousand watts to wake it up. That said, the set-up sounded very good if you remained "centered up" between the speakers. When we were leaving the room, I casually asked Mr. Sanders if he had visited any of the other rooms at the show. Basically he said he had briefly walked around and found nothing that came close to his set-up. My friend and I were taken back a bit as the statement came across in a somewhat arrogant manner. We thanked him for his time and moved on down the hallway agreeing that we'd already heard a half dozen or so set-ups that we preferred over his.....all tube based BTW.
