Tube or solid state amp or amps?

tubes rule, don't be a solid state fool.

get a vintage cj mv75 or mv 125, depending upon power requirements.

Mr. Tennis's glib response not withstanding, I think that a high quality tube preamp that is paired with a good, musical-sounding solid state power amp is a nearly ideal combination, particularly if one's speakers are not of the high efficiency / horn variety.

Sdcampbell-very well put and true.
