Best integrated Tube amp as an intro to tubes

You might consider a hybrid int. amp as well. All that you would need to replace would be the small input tubes(12at7/12ax7's)which does not cost a small fortune. I too was curious about getting into tubes. My first venture was the Jolida 102b because it was affordable and used inexpensive EL 84's. Very nice. Also tried out the littlest Jolida hybrid int. amp. Also, very nice. But my latest toy, the Kora "Explorer Si-90" is much, much nicer sounding than either one of the Jolida's. For me, this is the best of both worlds at a very affordable price and replacement 12AT 7's tubes are reasonable. Also, no need to bias this int. amp. Visually an all tube amp is very pleasing, but it does heat things up.

There was a recently posted Aronov LS-960i for $1250. I would buy it myself, but I already own one. You won't believe how natural, musical, and with bass control to burn.
The list price is $3600, so you can award yourself the bargain hunter of the week award.

Jolida 302b. It sounds great and is relatively inexpensive.

Sorry Bigpowerballs. I had some trouble with my computer and somehow this post ended up here. I had originally posted in the amp/premp section.

Thanks for the input listener57. I tried to do a little digging on the Aronov. It seems the Aronov website disappeared. I will continue to look for some info in the morning.
