What's the best EL34 amp besides 8b?

Audio Note Kits EL34 and if you are not a builder ANKits will put you in touch with one.

Good luck,

Reviewers consider the sound of the Cayin A-50T to be close to the classic Marantz 8B.

Line Magnetic 211IA ticks all the boxes, build quality, sound, looks, price.

Has driven any speaker I have thrown its way without breaking a sweat. And that is on Triode.
Dead quite, modern, built like a tank, hard wired, lovely sounding, switch on the fly between Triode and Ultra Linear.

There is nothing in it sound wise between Opera Consonance Cyber 800 Mono Blocks and an Audio Research SP16 pre which I also have on so called power hungry speaker like my Vandersteens.
In fact I am wondering why I spent so much, when the Line Magnetic stands up on equal terms.
Have used it daily for 18 months with a hic up.
