Decware integrated

Hi all. I'm posting this because I'm looking at the Decware zen Trioid SE34I.5 integrated amp as my first foray into tubes. I'm planning on purchasing Zu audio dirty weekend mkII and would like your opinion if this would make for a decent starter tube system. 
Thanks.

@wmbode I’d be interested to know where you ended up on this. Did you purchase the Zu? How about the Decware? I have Soul Superfly and am wi during about Decware.

Absolutely love my Decware 341.5.  I’ve rolled tubes and the improvement is awesome.  I do recommend that you upgrade the caps.  I did and wish I had upgraded to the Vcaps.  I feed the amp with the Brinkmann Nyquist DAC.  Really go well together.  The amp seems to drive any speaker with sensitivity above 87.  I’m running Lii Audio speakers with a 98 sensitivity. My biggest decision is finding a preamplifier to maximize the benefits of both the Decware and Brinkmann.  The journey continues.

I’d be looking for an integrated. No concerns about the wait for me.

Should be great. Off course, but the Decware Zen Line Conditioner makes everything sublime. It really is phenomenal.
