S.e.t

I love my Single Ended Triodes but use Ultra Linear Push Pull in the office for extra power

Office setup:
EL34B (TADS) Ultralinear Amp (52Watts)...with pre 1970's Philips "Bugleboys"
Marantz CD5003
Technics SL 1210Mk5 turntable with ortofon styli
Yaqin MS-12B Phono Preamp...using Philips ECC83
Warfedale 9.6 Diamond

Warehouse:
All transistor Pure Class A, Single Ended Triode design
Preamp and Mono Blocks weigh in at 80kg! ~ Power output 45 Watts
and consumes about 300 Watts in idle!
Marantz CD 5003
Warfedale 9.6 and home built full range 6" Horns
Graetz Melodia 1957 Radiogram

Home:
ValveMark Nimbus 100 Single Ended Triode
Using KT 88 "Coke Bottles" running at about 20 Watts
Beresford Caiman DAC
Marantz CD 5003
Altair Full range 7" Horns

Valve based head phone preamps....... Sennheiser 595 and AKG K701

Like optics .... buy the best you can afford!
