I've been thinking about upgrading my equipment lately and was initially thinking about a P5/A21 combo, then I got checking out tubes and thought maybe this is worth a shot. Going with the go big or go home approach here. This will be driving CRS+, 1C's, and Monitor 10b's swapping in rotation.

Wrong amp for those speakers.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

That's all I needed to know, thanks.

Too low of power. Go big or go home?

That's a little too big for me. I'd rather put the money in my WRX.
As a shameless act, here is another tube amp I am selling:

It's a good sounding amp that should pair well with the selections.
This is more in my ballpark, definitely pretty far on the right of the scale though. -
This was part of the same link you provided. I'd think this would be somewhat better.

Yeah, I seen that too. IDK maybe I will just stick with SS and not take the tube route. Or save a bunch of money and leave well enough alone. I hate being indecisive -

It is better. I swear that amp used to be about half that price, no? That seems like a lot of $$$ for a Yaqin.
yep it is 749.00 at Silk audio. The one in my link say's "upgraded" what ever that means. They are about 900.00 on the bay. Either way I just seen it when I clicked the other link. -

You'll find a SS amp and a Tubed pre amp will cover your bases and many more so you won't have to worry about powering speakers and still get that tube flavor in your sound.HT SYSTEM-

A Sunfire amp with dual outputs gives you the option to bi amp your speakers giving you a SS boost on the low end and a more tube flavor on the high end. Check out a pass labs x1 as a pre. Love this combo on my 2.3 tl's____________________________________________________________
