Tube amps under $7500

it’s very much like a net present value calculation of an investment that yields income.  the npv = discounted cash flows + resale value.  so for a piece of gear, the “cash flows” are the annual benefits of enjoying the gear.  so, one piece of gear could have higher annual cash flows (greater enjoyment), but lower resale.  because of those cash flows, it may actually be a much better investment.  In other words, resale value tends to be overrated.  As as with any investment,  it often depends on what discount rate you assume, lol!

Something tells me that's not your first time putting that formula into play. No matter, I couldn't agree more. While price (and resale price) is a consideration, it's a rather distant cousin to the priority of value. At least for me. I'm often surprised by how often people fail to make the distinction.

I would consider the Coincident 300B Power amplifier monos...single ended for efficient speakers, but with plenty of bass foundation, liquid mids and extended, soft highs.  Israel is a good guy that has been in audio for decades!  P

@hickamore Other than silver color, Circle Labs M200 could tick all the boxes if you are considering high current SS route.  It is a great looking amp though.  I believe at the price of the one currently available used, it would be difficult to beat.  This hybrid amp has tube warmth and very good SS bass paired together seamlessly.   I have the integrated version .  Very special amp.  Good tube warmth,  but still accurate and fast.  Coda may also be a good fit for you, but for me this is the only SS ( hybrid) I have heard that hasn't left me wanting for my tube amp.  Review is worth a read.  

@yoder New one to me, like so many tube amps here. Thanks. I am indeed also considering Coda and will check out this one as well before pulling the trigger.
