Hybrid Amplifiers suggestions


Folks,

I am considering a Hybrid amplifier with at least 50 watts per channel. A hybrid design which uses tube valve for the input stage and high quality Mosfets for the output stage. I plan to pair the amp with Shindo’s Monbrison preamp.

I am aware of Aesthetix, PS Audio and Vincent that makes hybrid amps. Are there others that I should consider before I make my purchase?

Thank you!

Lamm Industries M1.2 Reference monoblocks are a pure class A hybrid design and have been an industry benchmark for a decade.

Ypsilon’s Aelius II also comes to mind.

Heads up that I’m a Lamm Industries dealer.

Cheers,
Colin

New York Audio Labs (NYAL) made three excellent hybrid tube/MOSFET amps back around 1990. The Moscodes 150, 300 and 600. 75, 150 and 300 wpc. Designed by George Kaye and built in NY State. I have the Moscode 150. They differ in the number of output devices used. There is a review of the Moscode 300 in the Stereophile archives. It made the cover of that issue and got a favorable test by Atkinson. All the models use 2 input tubes per channel: a 12BH7 and a 12CG7/FQ7. I recommend buying one of these over any more recent ones!
The two I am thinking of both have Class D output stages rather than a MOSFET Output stage.  
The AVM A5.2 and Canor Audio AI 2.10 are both awesome amps but require you accept Class D.

I have the Classic One MKIII and love it. Upscale Audio is the US distributor and great folks to do business with.

Had a Raven Blackhawk and had issues from the start. Have Raven CeLest Speakers and they work great with the Pathos. 
Folks, I have decided to keep things simple and going to keep the amazing Accuphase E-650 Integrated in my system.

Thank you all for chiming in :-)
I wasn't impressed with the Rogue Sphynx 3. Descent amp, but all I heard was class D. Don't take my word. Just my taste and observation. I was surprised due to the good word on this one.
