Thanks 2x6,
I've read your posts in the past regarding the ASL and it looks like a good place to start with tubes. As with other SET amps, though, attention must be paid to speaker pairing (from what I understand). Gives me a good excuse to buy some M3s! The Prima Luna offers more power, so I'm guessing it would be easier to drive a variety of speakers. In any case, I'm still in the process of learning about tubes, but haven't yet taken the jump.
The Ah! Njoe Tjoeb is also a tempting unit. Another piece of equipment that seems to outperforms its price. Although, it still is pretty expensive to me. Until I win the lottery, that is. . .
