Dennis,
Well said as far as the lower powered SET.
I think it needs to be said that folks new to SET should not be deterred because they have lower efficient speakers. I routinely drive 91 db/m (with a simple crossover) speakers with my triode strapped EL84's and the sound is still much better than my sand amp that cost 3x more than I built this amp for. I acknowledge that performance can always be better but I hear a lot of absolute statements in this forum that might make others exclude themselves from this marvelous sound... (this is from a DIY point of view) the dynamics of purchasing gear might be different if you're dropping big bucks...
When you the difference, you want it..
