SET kit suugestions?

I want to buid a SET amp, probably from a kit (the first time, anyway). Can you folks point me toward some kits that won't break the bank?

I've looked at Decware, DIYaudio, the DIY kit guy on ebay (who, they say, pirate's desgns of honest designers) and a couple others.

I like the EL34 kit at the ebay store, but I am aware of the ethical issues about some of his offerings/his business ingeneral. Any comments of this kit (is it, in particular, the fruits of someone else's labor?) or one whether the guy deserves a total boycott?

Or others?

What about the cut-rate Decware kit? Does the use of a printed circuit board flaw an otherwise well-loved design to the point where the savings are outweighed?

I'm open to any and all suggestions here. I have no exper0.iance with SET. The closest I came was a Phillips single ended Pentode amp (which was pretty cool

I'll post on the Tubes/DIY board as well.

They sell an Kt88 SE. It may even be wired as a Triode and they also sell SETs - Frihed89 14:48:36 05/09/12 (1)
