Good SET Tube Amp for $1500?


Thinking about low-powered SET tube amps. Budget is somewhat limited. Any suggestions? My pre is a VTL 2.5. Loudspeakers are Soliloquy 5.3s (I like the compactness of these).

I would suggest you to build one! Welborne labs is offering a new KIT in pair of monoblocks DRD 8wpc (300B)! And also there is a "Billie".
Wright 2A3 monos should be in your ballpark and are exremely good. The ASL Tulip is also very good and is less money. I personally prefer the 2A3 tube to the 300B, but you do have significantly less power. I suggest these because you asked for "low power set". If you are willing to try push-pull tubes I can heartily recommend Quicksilver mini-monos. They are definitely in your budget new and can be had very inexpensively used. 25 watts per channel, very reliable, and close to set sound.
