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

RE: Who makes a headphone SET amp?

>It seems like a lot of amp descriptions will mention "single-ended" or "triode" but not necessarily "SET" or "single-ended triode".

Yes, marketing documents are intended to confuse the consumer by using audio buzz words.

>Is there a way to tell when researching them?

Yes, look at the tubes in the device. Is the output tube a triode? If YES then it is a SET. If NO then NOT a SET.

Don't know if the tube is a triode or pentode? Look it up at the link below.

>Is the Cyber-30 an SET?

The Consonance CYBER-20, for instance, is not a SET. It is a SEP since it is a Single Ended Pentode. Check the EL84 data sheet at the link below.
