Getting started w/ tube equipment

I am interested in tubed components and, knowing nothing about them, am wondering what a good place to start is.

Some reference material that might explain advantages/disadvantages to integrated or separate.

What to look for to match components and perhaps some suggestions for a good place to start (brand, model, etc.)

I recognize this is highly subjective based on individual style and preference, rooms, etc. but i need to start somewhere...

Thanks.

Hi Botit,

With respect to valves, I found/find it reassuring to obtain product from the same manufacturer as I believe critical engineering parameters should have been characterized as an element of the design gestalt.

Of course, this is not fail safe...it may not be consonant with one's preference for sound!

Season's Greetings,
Sam
