3 channel tube amp for home theater?


Hello,
Does anybody make a 3 channel TUBE amplifier for home theater? Left, right and center.

If not, does anybody run a two channel tube amp and use a single tube or solid state amp monobloc for the center channel.

Any recommendations? The goal is both good music for a tube lover and home theater (left, right, center and sub-woofer). Thanks, Jeff

Check out Conrad Johnson’s website. It appears they still do both a tube 5ch pre and a tube 5ch amp. Spirit Sound (they advertise here on A’gon) has or at least used to sell them at a pretty good discount. I’m using a CJ tube preamp in bypass with CJ tube monoblocks for HT duties in a 2ch/HT system. Rear channels are SS. Self powered sub. I don’t use a center. My main focus is 2ch but the tube monoblocks do a decent job for HT. Not quite the punch you get from SS but decent.
