Taking the big plunge SS to tubes ....Unison SR8

Actually I already took a small dip with the YS Audio Experience Symphonies + and was amazed by the dynamics that tube color lends to sound. I own electrocompaniet and krell gear and am going to buy a Unison Research SR8.
I would like any and all comments/reviews on this amp. The dealers claim that this is one of the best amps ever made (??!!)

Firstly I would like to know is 25w/ch enough amplification??
I am used to about 100w/ch in SS.

Secondly how much color does this amp add to the sound.

Can anyone comment on soundstage/bloom/sonics of this amp?

Good for you to take the big plunge!!!
I don't think you will go back to SS again.
If I were you I will go further....Go for the SET amp using 211 or 845 triode tubes. 20 watts in class A power is all you need.

Cheers.................
