SET amp with solid state preamp

I've been using a Naim preamp with my Art Audio Jota monos. ( sorry, not quite *low power*, I know.
Almost all AA amps I've tried, Naim preamps,so far, are the best choice for me.

Have a look at the Lamm line of gear, they're top line pre is solid state (with tube power supply) and works tremendously with the 18 watt monoblocks.

I have a John Hogan 6sn7/27/2A3&45 S.E.T. amp that I'm not using anymore because I bought a second John Hogan S.E.T. amp.

You can find lots of information about the John Hogan S.E.T. amps on Audio Asylum.

I think it's 1.5watts/ch running 45 tubes and 2watts/ch running 2A3 tubes. You just put in whatever power tube you want and you're in business. It's also self-biasing, so no need for matching tubes.

It would work extremely well with a good SS pre. With a bad one, not so much.

Gcj123, you need to get speakers with very benign impedance curves to use with lower powered tube amp, especially one that is single ended.

My speakers are rated at 88db/pm sensitive and I use a single ended tube amp rated at 12wpc. I have plenty enough power BUT my speakers were designed to be used with vacuum tube amps.
