Tube Amp Suggestions


I have had the audio affliction for about 10 years. I am finally ready to venture into the world of tube amps and would appreciate any ideas my fellow audiophiles might have. My current set up is theta basic II with a camelot uther IV going directly into a pass labs aleph 5 and audio physic virgo II speakers. All wiring is tara labs air 1. Budget is $2,000 to 3,000 new or used.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Tvad. I'm not criticizing Seigfried Linkwitz, and I do intend to read the info at his website. There may indeed be some valuable information and theories posted there. But you are right...Dida is a one note zealot who is probably turning people OFF to anything that S.L. would have to say. It's sort of like an overly zealous and incredibly obnoxious evangelist who, in reality, actually turns people away from God! "I don't want any part of the same God Who belongs to such an annoying chowder head!", many will say.
Didactically.No big deal here.... It's a simple question. Have you ever really heard the cary 805 monos?
Ecclectique, don't expect a direct answer from Didactically. Always the same irrelevant answer, and he never responds by directly answering a question posed to him. Just redundant noxious waste that takes up space. I'm sure no one here knows what he's talking about, not even Didactically himself. Read all of his posts....always the same, always seeking justification as the "Bringer of the Ultimate Audio Truth".
I'd heard of Linkwitz (smart old me) and could even connect his name with that of Riley, except I always get them mixed up with the Fitzgerald-Lorentz contraction. Serves me right for reading sci-fi instead of hi-fi.

For Lirpa I had to do a search. Dr. E. Lirpa, right? Father of the wireless cable?

Wow! This is like some Monty Python lost episode. I think Dida is actually Eric Idle (wink, wink, nod, nod).
