Again, I don't like to rain on anyone's parade, but fwiw:
The PX-25 is rated at either 5 or 6 watts, depending on what specs are looked at. The Art Audio Jota, another SET amp, is rated at 20 watts or more, depending on tube choice. Here is a comment that was posted elsewhere a few years ago by one of our particularly knowledgeable and experienced members, Jazdoc, who uses Daedalus Ulysses speakers (which I also happen to have), which are MUCH more efficient than the de Capos:

I tried my Ulysses with the high current Art Audio Jota. It was great at low volume but audibly ran out of gas a mid-high listening volumes.I have nothing but the greatest respect for the credibility and opinions of both Charles and Jazdoc. I have no experience with Art Audio products, and I have no idea how to reconcile these seemingly conflicting inputs. But I thought I should point this out.
