Tube amps have a huge variation in presentation. I would recommend listening to as many as you can before jump into it. I've listened to several types and it's more than just Class A , Push Pull, SET and how much power they provide. Each tube has its own sonic qualities.
The only recommendation I could make is to try to listen to a 845 tube based amplifier prior to purchasing. It might cause you to reevaluate your budget as it did me but then again you might prefer a completely sound pallet than mine.
