Quicksilver makes some nice low powered tube amps that are available used. If you see a Berning EA-230, it may be worth investigating. Also, if you do not want to spend a lot of money, you could get an AMC amp. They are available on Ebay at closeout prices.
The Little Tube Amp That Could?
Greetings all. I am looking for some recommendations for a moderately-priced stereo tube amp. I would like to have at least 20-30 solid WPC, but don't really need much more than that. The amp is going in between a Cary SLP50A, Ruark Templars (original model, about 87db sensitive with tube-friendly impedence), with a Sony 333 as the front end (also a NAD 533/Black Cube analog rig, too).
Is it possible to find an amp like this (used gear preferred) in the 6-800 range? I don't need fancy, just good dimensional tube sound with some "balls".
I was thinking about a Cary SLA 70 or something like that, and would appreciate quality feedback on this or similar amps. Thanks for your time.
