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

I use a Wyetech Topaz 211 with USA Monitors and ESL57's

This amp is all power supply with no electrolytics in it to modulate their nasties into the music. All polypropolyne and oil caps in the supplies.Weighing in at over 100lbs for about 20wpc.

The power supplies in SETs ,especially running into stats, should be unconditionally stable and pure. Most manufacturers don't spend the money required for a really good power supply because it is very costly both for the parts and the from the physical size required to do it ( think shipping,WAF and all that). The Wyetech (along with a few others) are one of the only amps I know that actually execute a great power supply in a commercial product.

And yes you can make a SET work with a stat. Depending on your taste the 845 or 211 may work well depending on the speaker.

Good Luck

AJ
