Name a SS Amplifier for $750 or Less That Sounds as Good as This Tube Amp

Posted by jaydacus on March 13, 2017 at 19:03:03:

So $612 for the amp and add $100 for better tubes. I used NOS for the input positions and Mullard reissues for the outputs. The China tubes it comes with were adequate, but shite compared to the new ones.

My personal take on the SS .vs tube debate is this. There may be better SS amps out there that sound as good as or better than this tube amp, but they would be much more expensive.

If this is not the case please suggest some SS alternatives...........
