Hello. I just scored a pair of monitor 12s in very good condition for 150.00...I'm very happy.

I already have a HT setup featuring SDA 2s, so I figured I would go 2 channel in my bedroom with the 12s. I had the opportunity to listen to tube power, and I was impressed with the warmth.

Can anyone suggest a nice tube setup for my new 12s. Thanks.

BTW...this was a Cleveland, oh craigslist purchase. He still has a pair of SDA 2s, and 2 pairs of SDA CRSs

    Integrated. If I MUST, 800.00, but I would feel better spending around 5-600.00
