805 SET Monoblocks

I've found my Hegel H20 unbeatable on my rebuild Quad 63 ESLs, but with fond memories of SET sound, including the Antique Sound Labs 805 Explorer, and the fact that I am now actively crossing them, I am interested in trying high-power SET sound again after many years out of that game.

Does anyone make an 805, or otherwise "high-power" (>50W) SET these days worth trying?

I am pretty sure that Cary still makes the CAD 805s?

And I know for a fact that I recently got an email from Cary Direct about the 211, which, if I remember correctly, is a real high powered pair of SET monoblocks.

If you go to Cary Directs web site, you can find out for sure if they are still building those.

. . . I won't try to post a link because A'gon always shoots me down whenever I try that, but I did just go to Cary Direct's site and they are listing the 805s for $12,700 now, and the 211FEs for $17,246.
