In Reply to: recs for high value SET integrated posted by lcrim on November 12, 2006 at 11:52:21:
It is a 15 wpc (conservative) integrated using 811a output tubes. Google Wavac MD-811 and see the positive reviews in Positive Feedback and Enjoy the Music. Bonus: the 811a tubes are cheap $25 per tube. 3 inputs, but no phono. It would be in the $2400 range. Super quiet and extraordinarily beautiful.I am trying to see if I want to continue to play the SET game. I've mated it successfully w/ Merlin TSM and unsuccessfully with Devore Fidelity Super Gibbon. If I don't locate a local pair of Cain&Cain Abbey's, I may just stop going down the SET path. Terry Cain used a WAVAC MD-811 for his reference.
Any 'philes in Seattle area that have SET friendly speakers that might want to get together for a listen? I really want to hear this amp on a pair of speakers that was made with SETS in mind.
