I want an inexpensive chinese tube power or integr


I have Magneplaner 3.5s connected with MIT 750 biwire cables to my Krell ksa 300s and an Audio Research LS preamp, I listen to Dick Hymen, Willie Nelson, and other ODD dead people type of music.
I want to get a taste of tubes on the cheap, what can you recommend ?

Don't know if the power output will suit your speakers' requirement but if so, I'd try Antique Sound Labs:
For about USD 1k (new) you should be able to get their smallest integrated MG SI 15 DT where you can even play with switchable triode and pentode operation.
For USD 350/piece (new) I've seen their smallest mono-blocks WAVE AV 25 DT on offer.
Whereas I prefer the Unison I have in my own system, Antique's bigger AQ 1001 integrated made an excellent impression at the dealer's.

Otherwise a used Prima Luna?
given the speaker specs Larry quotes, the entry Antique Sound Labs would not be an option then
