With all the talk about tube amps, I found this 100wpc for $850 locally and couldn't resist. I'm a little concerned about this brand as far as reliability, see http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32352

It drove my 2.3's all night 5-6 hours with great results. Does everyone think I should keep it or sell it?

    how does it sound? I imagine it must sound spledid. hard to go wrong with 100 watts of tube power, but I must admit I know nothing of that brand in terms of reliability.

    It is quite amazing. It somehow matches the power of my bi-amped 375 wpc carvers but in a smoother more mellow tone. I can hear the choppy vocals of Celine Dion which I call the Stevie Nicks effect :)
