Be careful with your amp choice. You should have at least an idea of what speaker you are going to use. If you are in a large or even medium listening room, 10 watts per channel on a speaker with efficiency < or = to 98db and a impedence of 8 ohms or greater will probably not cut it. At that point you need to consider an 845 based SET like the Cary 805C, the Unison Research Smart 845, or the Antique Sound Labs AQ1006-845. These amps will generate 22 to 40 watts/channel in single ended operation.
Another option is to go with very efficient speakers like the Avantgardes, Beauhorns, or other horn based systems which will give you 100db plus efficiency and a benign impedance.
If you proceed very carefully and thoughtfully, you should be able to assemble a system that will make the music come to life. Gook luck.
