Favorite Tube Amps, Reasonably Priced

I have seen several tube amp lines, made in china (i think), like Sun, Antique Audio, Audio note. Cary has a cheaper line, Audio Electronic supply. Has anyone listened to these? Any recommendations, I have Audio physic Virgos, so i need an amp with some balls. Are the high end Carys, like the 805's, worth the scratch? Thanks......

You might take a look at the Kora line. Lots of Great sound for the money. Give Joe a call at JC Audio. He is a super guy & is full of info!

Good Listening

One of the best and easy to maintain is the EAR 534 . It is in chrome has balanced ins or rca and level controls for each channel - puts out 50 wpc and can drive ML's to great levels.It can also switch to mono for more versatility. It retails for 3695 in chrome - can be obtained new for 2500.

I have heard that many, but I was pretty impressed by the Rogue monoblocks (M120's, I think). They're pretty reasonably priced and they sound pretty great. They've gotten quite a few good reviews too.

I have been very pleased with the Cary SLAM 100s which sometimes come up here for 2500/pair which would be great value.
