Tube amp, size and power info........


I am geting a new pair of speakers wich are 99db efficient with a plate amp for the woofer, I have a tube pre but now I can entertain tube power but I want a reasonable price to try and also it needs to fit in a standard rack space (6.5 inches) I would say that anything above 25 watts will do, my pre-amp is a Sonic Frontiers and my usual volume is low to moderate, never obnoxiuosly loud, what are some options that wont break the bank, I know it isnt much but I am talking around $500 new or used.
Thank you as always Chad

Aball is right. 99dB sensitivity is quite high, especially when your sub is powered, so you don't need to look at 25-watters. 3-10 watts will simply blow you away ... for all of the right reasons. Just do some crit research. I wouldn't spend mega-dollars at first, and I don't think I'd even consider 300Bs at this point, at least not before you know that tubes are where you intend to stay.
