Tube Integrated vs Tube Seperates

Having read all of the above I have logged in only to address the power concerns of SS vs tubes. I have never heard PL or any of the other tube amps/int. amps mentioned so I cannot comment on the sound comparisons.  I have a Raven Blackhawk tube int. amp. at 20 wpc and very pleased with the sound. It replaced reputable SS separates at 400 wpc/4. And I have no issues with volume. I would’ve never believed it but heard it for myself before buying. I listen to CDs and Vinyl, some rock, some classical, and alot of "classic vinyl" from A to Z, etc. My speakers are 92 db sensitive Martin Logan ESL 9s.

I was once a separates only guy. For the past 10 years I’ve only listened to integrated’s. They’re very good and very affordable. That PL will be good enough. Don’t buy into the noise others here are selling. 

anybody have a look at the Magnat hybrid integrates SS power and tube preamp? Here is the german site 

Imo..the mindset integradeds take to a back seat to separates is silly at best these days ..there are some super integraded amps out there that can stand side by side or even surpass separates...add that to other benefits they bring to the table  I guess that's what the buying market is following that path .

Biggest issue with integrateds is sharing of power supply. Pre and amp have different requirements, sharing is compromise.
