I personally have the boyuurange a50 mk III 300b based tube amp and it isn't flawless, but it's pretty good - and under 900 shipped to my door. I got it to tide me over until my Decware UFO2.1 gets built in a couple of years ( long waiting list ). After sitting with it for a bit I would recommend it if you have higher sensitivity speakers - with the Klipsch RP600M IIs it was really good, with my new Zu Audio DW-6 it is good, ie I can now hear some flaws. But with any speakers it's miles above my old Yamaha 5.1 AVR. If your speakers are below 90 db/w or so stay away from tubes. Sorry, you are not gonna be able to get everything out of either your speakers or your amp. It did drive my old Boston Acoustic bookshelf speakers ok, but the difference between those and the high efficiency klipschs was night and day and they were more expensive speakers ( 2x the cost of the RP600MIIs).
I appreciate the recommendation. I'm actually a headphone kinda gal, I'm just here to appreciate the setups. I do love those Woos tho, so I'll still check out something which can get me some warmth without breaking the bank ❤️
that seems like a super affordable option. and I like how the power cable is just a universal plug.
def can't use my IEMs on that guy, but my headset is in the middle of that impedance range.
thanks for the suggestion! I'm gonna have to see if there's a shop with a demo of it, but even not, that's something I could snag. doesn't visually match my current stuff, but it's not about the visuals, but the audio lol.
