List Of Small Company Tube Amps


I just love tube amps and I’m always wondering what small guy out there is making stellar amps under the radar.  I’m only talking somewhat affordable gear, definitely under 10k new. More like 2-5k is what I’m thinking. I’ll start the list but I’m sure there are a ton that I’ll miss.  Obviously feel free to express your preferences. Some of these might have international distribution but I feel they have a small enough presence in the US that they kind of count. 

Decware, may not count any longer but one of the originals

Member autospec (Will Vincent) in Idaho makes excellent Dynaco ST70 -based tube amps for around $1500. I bought one of his SET amps.

It is not just Companies making very attractive Audio Devices with Tubes used as the design for a Circuit. There are to be found EE adept individuals, who's knowledge is inspirational and who really know how to create a Audio Device that is superb in performance, as well as more than reasonably priced for a design built into a basic looking chassis.

If a small turnover Brand is wanted, I have added to the list Mr Nixie:
