Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k

@jonwolfpell will do - Harbeth 30.2XD (85 dB) and 2 REL T/9x.

Going from 30wpc to over 100 should be fun. I should have it by May 11

The amp puts out quite a bit of heat any any 100 watt, fully class A amp does & especially tubes. Ensure it has plenty of breathing room. I e also noticed it takes at least an hour or so warming it up to sound its best. Best of luck . It’s a great piece!

Does it have to be tube if it sounds just as smooth and detailed as a good tube amplifier??

In my experience, there is a spacious dimensionality in high-quality tube amps that I never quite hear in SS amps of the same caliber / price range.  Texture and tone, particularly in acoustic and wood instruments. Also, the assured warmth without loss of lucid definition. And today's good tubes don't suffer from labels such as "slow," "tubey" or from any background hiss. Certainly, SS is easier to manage at all the points we all know... I went from British SS amps to tube amps a while back, and it's hard to go back.  But I'm always listening for good SS as well... Recommendations?

OP,

I completely agree. The musical nuance you get with good quality tube amplification is hard to meet with solid state. Once I went to tube amplification there was no going back.
