Decware and SET Low Power Tube Amps with Hi Efficency Speakers

Good morning folks,
In my never ending search for a new concept in music involving and primarily focused on "tube" sound I came across Decware.
So does anyone have either experience or an opinion on the products and especially the sound. Speakers I am considering among others but most likely to be Tekton Designs, Lores or possibly Pendragons.
Without digressing into a myriad of other conversations what does the forum think?

I drive my Tekton Lores with a Decware Zen. The combination is pure magic as far as I'm concerned. Imaging is amazing.

Let me know if you have any specific questions.

I am using Decware HDT speakers and the Torii mk3. The amp replaces Wright Sound Mono8's. I would never consider anything less than 8 watts with my speakers that are 95db efficient unless you listen at moderate levels and aren't looking for dynamics, realistic levels. There is a lot I miss with this 300b but it's all a trade off. Steve's low power SET would need something in the 97db range minimum to my taste and I listen fairly near field and love my jazz.

I have never used the headphone jack.  Just speakers
