Older PURE CLASS-A Amplifiers

Aloia or a sugden

You can also try Pass labs Aleph series of amps. I used to have an Aleph 5 which was very nice, if your speakers are efficient they are excellent.

A shortlist of the amplifiers you are looking for:

Classe DR-3B or DR-3 VHC (very high current)
Bedini 25/25 under serial number 100 -- these were the real 25's -- not the later and cheaper Japanese version, as John likes to call them.

Levinson ML-2's
Electro Research A75 John Iverson's first real amplifier
Krell KSA-50
Threshold SA-3

best Class A , don't forget krell ksa 80b and threshold s200/e

Here's to keeping the thread alive. Good for the search engine and anyone looking for good old class A amps.

The smaller Bedini's like the 45/45 and 25/25 are underated. I have a 45 that puts out sweet music to my Maggie 3.6's.

Jimmyblues, my 45/45 has a less than 100 ser #. When I spoke to John about it and mentioned I liked SET amps, he said mine was single ended and no wonder I liked it so much. Is this what you meant by the "real Bedini"?
