Rnbowers, at low to moderate levels imho tubes cannot be beat. Haven't heard single end triodes and horns, but Sam Tellig likes the ESL's and tubes and he listens to more combinations than any of us probably have. Good idea to find a dealer you can trust, which is easier said than done, especially one that carries the combination of brands your interested in.
Happy Hunting.
