hybrid integrateds (Vincent and others)


Currently have Audio Refinement separates in my main system. I’m curious and want to try a Vincent or other hybrid tube preamp stage / ss amp stage along with my modified RP6 and ProAc Studio 148s (see system details). I would really like to find a Vincent SV-226 as it has no digital inputs (don’t need them), 6 analog inputs and a hefty 200w into 4 ohms for my ProAcs.

Am I wasting my time searching for this Vincent SV-226 as the YBA / Audio Refinement gear gets quite high marks already? If not, does anyone know of any SV-226 that might be coming up for sale?

The Audio Refinement gear was know to be fairly colorful for a SS amp..IMO a Hybrid amp is going to be a sideways move and only  going to an all tube (Pre and Power)set up will you truly see what tubes  bring to the table.In my playing around with Hybrids and all tube gear it is  the staging and imaging where the SS amp just can not compete..
@freediver what hybrids did you own? I have a few hybrids and they more than compete with the tube seperates I owned in the past. 
Started with Jolida,then Unison Unico then Peachtree Audio Nova...Moved to a Yaqin tube integrated and have moved up in amps but not gone back to SS...
Havn't heard the Vincent SV-226, but recently acquired the Vincent SP-T700 Mono Blocks to add my ever growing collection. Very nice indeed. Lovely blend of tube warmth & solid state drive.
Sp-t700’s are great as are the Vincent hybrid integrateds. Lsa, Bat, Musical Fidelity, Rogue and Bada are very good as well. If you want to try a good tube amp for the money the Tad-60 that came up on here today is fantastic. I’ve owned it twice, drove my Proac 2.5’s with ease.
