Are Low Power Tube Amps Worth The Troubl


Some people say that low power tube amps are more musical then their higher powered cousins. This whole 2A3 thing has my interest but such low power really paints you into a corner when you look for speakers. I would like to hear some input from some of you guys that had the nerve take the plunge and what your results were. Please mention names.

I have a pair of 91db Ribbon Hybrids (Newform Research R645's) that work well with the 35W AES-25 Superamp (DJH Version). I listen almost exclusively to large orchestral music and have been pleased. Am looking for just a little more oomph for the bottom octave and may augment with subwoofer. Otherwise, the dynamics are fine. My solid state Amp (Odyssey Stratos) goes lower and has more visceral impact. However, it does not have the sweet midrange or highs of the AES.
