Best SET Monos with ARC SP 6-C preamp

I recently bought my first SET, an pair of ASL Explorer 805 DTs. WOW...never have I heard a piece of electronics make my system sound more like music. 50 Watts, uses all-inexpensive tubes--one each 12AX7, 6L6, and 805, $2995/pair RR.

Try 'em; you'll love 'em. Art Dudley certainly did. http://www.stereophile.com/amplificationreviews/304antique/index.html

Thanks for your comments. I'm really looking for the best SET amps I can get in the under $1500 range. I've seen paramours with various upgrades for sale on audiogon. Do you feel that the stripped down look of the paramours means that they emphasize sound over aesthetics, and might therefore be even better than other, more stylized amps in their price range and even a bit higher?

Thanks again,

Douglas

Douglas, I can't comment on the Paramours. Welborne is having a 10% off sale, you should be able to get one of his for less than 1500. Fi also makes an X amp in a 2a3 for around 900 and a 300b for a little more. These amps are great values. If distributers, wholesalers and retailers got into the picture you could easily double or triple the price. Above all, they are well designed by hightly regarded people. Good luck.
