ARONOV LS-9100 ..How realible is this tube amp ?

********NEED SOME ADVISE FOR THIS AMP******
1.Should I trade my Threshold 4000 amp to Aronov Sl-9100
at even trade?
2.My main question now is how realiable this amp ? I heard there are no more support fr. the original maker.
I will mate this amp with my Lector Zoe pre-amp and
Von Schweikert Vr-2 speaker.
Please I need your input for this trade. I am happy at
this time w my s/s Threshold but always like a tube mono amp w/ at least 100 watts per.

Please need your input and advise.I thank you all.

IMO, an excellent design.  After making a few mods (changed ground path, added silver leads, updated caps, driver tube, etc..)
no issues for years.. bullet proof.
THE ONLY ISSUE.. these babies run HOTT!
I live in East Texas and can only enjoy them from Oct. to March. Then I'm forced to live with my SX1250s (i have a pair of them.)
I have to get off the floor when I threaten my wife with selling them (she carries a BIG STICK.)  LOVE EM!!
