SET amplifier recommendation


 I have been listening push-pull tube amp for a long time. Finally I'd like to try SET. Seems a lot of people moving from push-pull to SET. My budget is <$3000. Looking at Coincident Dynamo MK III 300B. As there is no dealer for Coincident, i can not try it/hear it. Anyone has this? I'd like to hear your comments. i also looked at Decware, Bottlehead, etc. It seems Dynamo is better. Line Magnetic has some interesting ones. But i am not sure the quality can match Canadian made one. 
    My main speaker is B&W 805. Listening space is less than 400 sq ft. My current push-pull setup is CJ premier 15+CJ premier 17ls2+ Audio Research VT100 MKI. Thank you.

Do NOT buy anything from Coincident. I made that mistake a few years ago, and will never consider it again.
the dynamo is a cheaply made Chinese crap, with the cheapest parts and terrible workmanship. I’ve had issues with it from day 1, and the customer service I received from Israel was appalling. He did not own his warranty for an amp that arrived defective, tried to blame me for it, and wouldn’t even pay for return shipping for the repair, even though after I sent the amp back he admitted that it was faulty. If you want a Chinese SET, get a cheap one one on eBay. Quality will be the same, price will be 1/4 of the dynamo, and most Chinese sellers provide customer service orders of magnitude better than Israel.
