Expensive Tube Amplifiers

I’ve heard many different iteration of Western Electric 124 amps that sound very good.  Deja Vu uses very good vintage output transformers in these amps—Chicago’s, Acrosounds, 1940’s Hammonds, Peerless, and for the very best builds, original Western Electric 171C transformers.  These amps are hard to beat if you have high efficiency dpeakers.

I recently picked up a pair of Volti Lucera. I’m really enjoying the sound. Never had horns before. Apparently the design is a hybrid. Traditional woofer and mid/high compression drivers I think. Vu is making his own as well. Sound great too.

@joeycastillo @lewm @dogearedaudio Thank you so much for taking the time to respond and educate me. I’ll look into push-pull that are at least 50 watts or higher, as I’m happy with my speakers and only bought them a year ago. Cheers.

I have shared in a very similar experience with a particular SS Design of Power Amp, and have the design currently on loan in my system.

A friend who has a long time experience of using that same SS Power Amp design. Has over past year created their own version of a SS Design that they are very keen for myself to listen to. This new encounter will be ready for me in late October. This same New Design was recently debuted at an Audio Show and had as result been exposed to a very well received response where orders have now been taken.
