Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: deciding on SET over push pull

I would maintain the PP amp and work into a less expensive SET amp to start. I personally, like both depending on the music I'm playing and mood.

I use my Pentode based PP as my work horse and bring out the expensive SET amp like someone would share a fine Scotch with friends...;> )

Yes, SET does have a special lower order harmonic distortion that tends to be euphoric with a nice sound stage presence. Well done PP can provides a Less "Fleshy" sound with a slightly better frequency extension and thump.

Have fun, you can have both...
