I would not advise using tubes that are rolled off in the treble with the SA-100 mk3. I would advise something in SS like the matching Plinius preamp which can be had used for a very good value. Or you could try to get a Krell KRC-HR which would probably work very well with the Plinius amp.
Or if you had about $3k or so to spend, I would suggest the Ayre K-3x.
Anyway, I had Plinius amps (two SA-100 mk3's) for several years, and they have some problems in the treble which can be seriously compounded by a tube amp that is rolled off on top or dark on top.
