I'm running the Cornwalls with a DIY 45 amp that puts out a watt and a half or so; plenty of power. It won't blow you out of the room, but who wants it too? Late at night when the house is quiet and I'm getting cleaner power, there is no substitute. I listen strictly to vinyl and only a few pressings I own sound 'quiet.'I've done a head to head shoot out with the 2a3 vs the 45 and the 45 is the clear winner, more detailed tube, sweeter midrange, really better at everything.
The 2a3 is no slouch mind you but the extra watt and a half or so I would gain from using the 2a3 isn't worth losing the 45's near perfection as an audio tube.
One of the key factors in selecting an amp (besides the tube) is the quality of the output transformers and the synergy of the parts used.
