SET, Tetrode, Pentode ?????


Can anyone explain the basic difference between single end triode;, pentode, tetrode, push-pull etc.and why I would want one versus the other?
Have been looking at EAR, BAT, VAC and VTL, all sound good , but have different designs/power, features.
Need some advise.
Thx

keeping away from costly tubes in a power amp i might suggest a class A ss amp like a pass aleph design that easily performs like a tube set with far greater reliability! the class A aleph is single ended.
