Tube amp for Harbeth compact 7

If this speaker can be driven by a 15 watt Leben then there`re SET amplifiers that could drive this speaker also. It all depends on 'which' SET one is referring to. A 45 or 2A3 would be a poor choice(in SET mode,2A3 ok in push pull).A good 845 or 211 tube would have no problems. There are certain 300b SET(with stout power supplies and transformers) that could be considered as well.

It really depends on the quality level of the particular SET in question to form an opinion.There`s a wide range of performance among SET aplifiers.I hope there`s an opprotunity to try some with your speakers.

Charles one of the big problem I am facing is that right now I am in PR during my second year of Anesthesia masters,
here i had seen a couple of High end stores but they carry Ayre, Naim and so on but nothing like SET amps etc.
I have been considering the Triode Japan 845 also their 300b,
but lately i turned very interested in LM gear imported my Shindo man.
Basically i look for advice here cause i will be buying the amp based on you guys, i have to look for resale value just in case things dont turn as magic as we expect sometimes.
and keeping my Luxman meantime, they rare come for sale as well.

Thank you all for taking your Sunday evening to advice me about my next move, great hobby, great people.

If you are interested in whether the Line Magnetic gear will play well with your Harbeth speakers, contact Peter at Venice Audio. He sells both Line Magnetic amplifiers and Harbeth loudspeakers.

I'm using a 30wpc SET Mastersound Compact 845 with my Harbeth C7's. Magical - as long as you go with a leaner cables - I'm using Auditorium 23.

Another great choice would be the Unison S6.

I briefly used a 20wpc Mastersound dueventi el34/set and that also worked very well - in a smaller room.

30wpc gives you all the control and slam you could ever want.

Meiwan,
Good example, The Mastersound is well built and has very good transformers.Some people tend to clump SET amplifiers and don`r recognize the very broad spectrum they represent.
