SET 45 Amp Driving Dynamic Speakers

Tommie,
You're very happy with your amplifier and speakers, I wouldn't change a thing.
Charles,  

Especially after installing a black fuse in my transport this morning ;)

I understand 😊. 

I fully agree.
Some reviewers have badly explained the results of low powered sets, and in any case they will not satisfy heavy rock/metal lovers. They just have the greatest purity and enough sound pressure for pleasurable home listening.
My 8watts 300B SET plays on not even horn and not even efficient speakers (marvelous 88dB XTZ Master M2 speakers to hear or have), and yet sounds loud enough. Imagine now with efficient speakers!!! We, family and friends, are continuously marveled by the fabulous tones, dynamics and musicality. Every sound aspect is absolutely close to perfect. It is rare to be continuously satisfied, every time i power it up. Never had this with any of the SS system i had before.
One small advice, when choosing class A low powered SET amps, one must look out for the power supply; there must be a lot of it and of good quality. It is what makes the difference, especially in dynamics and output level.

I don't think it is quite as simple as a great digital system will sound even better with good phono gear added.  I have problems with optimizing my system for one or the other.  I had a setup that sounded quite good with both my CD player and my phono setup.  But, when I went to a music server that has a slightly different tonal balance, if I optimize the sound for the server, the setup doesn't sound as nice as it did before when playing my phono source.  I actually have more flexibility than most people do in changing my sound without taking drastic measures, because I can control the output of both my midrange and tweeter drivers, but, I find it too much of a bother to fiddle with this when switching back and forth.  I actually ended up optimizing the sound for my music server because I listen to it more than I do the phono setup.
