Tube Amp for Klipsch Forte IV's? Black Ice F-22 or Willsenton R8 with upgraded tubes?

I can get the Black Ice for around 2700.00 CAD and the Willsenton for 2000.00 CAD

The Willsenton would include three upgraded Psvane pre amp tubes (the other two are stock) and four upgraded powertubes, Psvane PH's

F22 shows 50w per channel, Wilsenton 40w ultra liner and 25w triode

I may also pair the amp with a Sonus Faber Lumina V also which is 50w recommended min

thanks in advance for any input

Mike makes great stuff!!! 40 watts is more than plenty in my room .... that said you should definitely check out the Quicksilver Integrated Amp. It’s 20 watts of EL 84 goodness. Quality is high for the money.

In Steve's defense he did chime in when he saw my post and seemed sincere in helping but it was too late. I went with something else. My wait will be 8 to 10 months but thats not even the point.... answer my call and you'll probably get the sale......
