Thanks, 2x6, to point me to the Antique Sound Labs, a brand I wasn't aware of -- it is refreshing to see that some of their amps are sold for the street price as low as $250/monoblock new. I definitely cannot say those are "overpriced." However, I also see that their SET designs with reputable power tubes (300B, 211, 845, etc), as well as higher-power push-pulls, are mostly priced at multi-grands. I don't know if I would call them a "Hong Kong Bargain."
