There are several amps to consider in that price range. Ususally a MOSFET amp will give you a more "tube-like" sound. I have always been partial to the sound of Hafler and Bryston but there are many more. Happy hunting.
SS amps that sound like tubes?
I am looking for a solid state amp that you feel sounds like a tube amp with a 150 to 250 wpc power output rating. The amp must have high current capability. Price range new or used $3000 maximum. I have heard that GamuT amps offer a lush tube like sound although one reviewer stated the amp clipped when playing at loud volume levels. I have heard that Sonogy makes an amp that compares to the BAT VK-75 tube amp. Sonogy is little known amp company from New Jersey.
