EL 34 based amplifier recommendations


My favorite flavor in power tubes apprears to be the EL34. Any suggestions on a reasonably priced amplifier ($3K used) which would fit the bill? Speakers are Coincident Total Eclipse. Room is large --probably need 100- 150 wpc. Any suggestions? Thanks

The Music Reference RM9 is a great choice. It will be a little easier to retube than the Cary.But I would have a tough time choosing between it and the Cary minus the retubing cost.Both are terrific tube amplifiers!

Good Luck!
Conrad Johnson Premier 5 monoblocks would fit the bill nicely. The Vulcan (if you can find one) is another great choice.

VTL MB 125 monoblocks are real gems.... 4 x EL-34 per channel at 125 wpc in tetrode AND a switch for about 55wpc in triode at your "beck and call". New list is $3500, typical used A'gon price at about half that. Reliable and excellent sounding amps. P.S, I love the El - 34's too... Good luck.
