So, I dug out an old pair of Axiom M3V2 speakers and grabbed a tube amp from monoprice for $150. I didn't expect much.
It's so sweet it's a joke. I've listened to Smetena and Mussorgsky so far (CDs). The sound quality is really good!
This Monoprice unit looks like a lot like a nobsound MS10d, has a single input and a built-in bluetooth receiver.
A nice sounding tube amp for $150. That is audio value friends.
Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.

Speaking of inexpensive Monoprice amplifiers, they have one of their "No Logo" branded 2 channel amps for just over $200 US. 150w x 2 (8 ohms) and 235w x 2 (4 ohms)...not much in the way of reviews on it, but if it's anywhere near it's listed specs (and reliable) it's a bargain.

It's tempting. Exchange rate sucks right now though.

Niles also makes some reasonably priced amps too.
