Beginners Tube Amp Recommendations


I'm seduced by the liquid sounds of tube amps but need some good recommendations on where to start. I'm looking for an entry level tube/hybrid amp around the $500-$700 new or used. My speakers are Totem's rated at 80watt & 4ohms. I've checked out Jolida 102, AMC 2030...anything else? I don't wanna spend a bundle just to found out that tubes are high maintenance and then want to go back to SS amps.

Anthem INT 2 can be had in your price range. Tubed pre section with solid state power section. 90 watts per channel should do you just nicely. Just be aware that the volume pot is not the greatest...
