SET amps


What tubes are a good balance of great intimate sound and budget? Any suggestions for amp kits and builders? $1500 budget Or so. Any options?

Anyone know About the set amps from  Ken Uesugi  I’m Japan? I heard his 2a/3 on you tube and it sounded phenomenal . Read some and he seems like an amazing designer. Does anyone know his work compared to Tom Eaton ?
I got Ken Uesugi to build me a 2a3 / 45 and am amazed by the transparency. Using old rca 45s were musical n trying out expensive EML mesh globes took the amp to a very high level. Very happy with his work!
