Mdblank, "Deja Vu Audio in Virginia sells a 2A3 amp. But I don't know if it's an SET or push-pull."
It is push-pull, about 15 watts, true (required two power cords) dual mono. Vu used vintage transformers in them, along with a level parts through most of it that you will not find in most high-end audio components.
I had one in my system. The only nit I could ever pick with it was the solid state rectification did not provide the same level of romance as tube rectification would. Of course, that's a choice every tube amplifier manufacturer has to make, and was balanced by the very tight and powerful bottom end. The Deja Vu drove all of my loudspeakers to very (110 - 120dB at the listening chair) high SPLs across the entire frequency spectrum without any sense of strain. Overall, it was an absolutely spectacular amplifier; one of, if not the best I've been around.
