who makes auto biasing tube amps w/200 wpc

....on the Moscode front, there's but a slim chance of me landing one.. 401 or 402. Consequently as I'd be lurking on the preowned pages for one. They aren't often visiting thsoe pages either.

The D class amps interest me still. With my speakers a good set of Class D monos ought to be a nice fit. they'll coast on my current speakers but will enable me to be a lot more flexible in making future speaker matches.

Nope... money is an issue so I'm unable to invest heavily.

Speakers, currently are Silverline Sonata IIIs which I have posted for sale actually. I do have others though. Though, none as good as the IIIs.

They feel like 92 db speakers running at 6 ohms or so, nominally. A BAT vk60 ran them very well to quite remarkable sound levels.

They responnd best to amps with good power supplies. My preff is tubes normally... but The Sonata IIIs don't seem to mind what topology the amp possesses. So long as it's a decent amp or above.

I simply want to get different color speakers and perhaps trade up there too.

So $2K $3K approx. is about the whole budget for amp (s).

Thanks for the Audio Valve note, Bill. Nice amps, but a Wee bit out of the budget. I would actually prefer a Hybrid amp that allows tube rolling in the 200wpc or better area.

OK... here's a thought... who distributes and/or seells the Audio Valve Challenger amps?

where does it rate in your opinion amongst other tube amps your've heard? Please note those other amps?

One pr of mono blocks is up for sale now... but beyond my reach currently. going that route I've save up... a fair amount more.

All of that is quite encouraging. Thank you.

thanks ... I had thought about the Moscode initially but wasn't sure... and I like the idea of a hybrid too as those I've heard seem to do better in the bass region than strickly tube amps do.
