Head-ups for fans of AricAudio designs. His new Super 211 SET two chassis amplifier

Many of you who own some of Aric's preamps/amplifiers already know what a talented designer and master builder he is of great tube gear.  I'll be getting in a few days his first two chassis reference 211 based SET amplifier for a review for Six Moons.com.  He went all out in both design and parts quality in this new creation.  Based on my past experiences with his gear, this is something that might be very special, indeed.  My two favorite power tubes in SET amps are 2A3's and 211's. You can also use 845's in this amplifier.

@facten - from above: "Power output with the 211 is conservatively rated at 25 watts per channel and with the 845 is rated at 35 watts per channel (with modest "soft-clipping" exceeding 40 watts)"

Thanks guys, I apologize for not catching the mention of it in Aric's original post - old age is really setting in

Sounds like a wonderful tube amp.  Will go to your site and find some pics!

Too early for pics on the site it seems. Love to see pics inside the chassis as few amps today are point to point wired. Most are circuit boards. I much prefer the sound and build quality of real point to point built tube gear. Many are works of art to me and a joy to look at.
