geoff. Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Tube amps eh? I am surprised Klipsch or Bob Crites or Al K. haven't knocked out a decent entry level tube amp suited for our beloved horns yet. Something us fortuitous afficianados could wade into... Now I am going to have to build my own amp too? Where is my notepad and pencil...? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially a company with a history of building them, I'd buy one or two. That would be " HUGE " for consumer confidence ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richieb Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 ^^^^^ There are numerous tube amps, from both companies and well regarded individuals, built in the US, Too numerous for me to mention but a few might be Decware, Quicksilver, VTL, Manley, Rogue, Audio Research, Conrad Johnson, etc. And of course the venerable McIntosh. And dozens of highly respected cottage industry builders such as our own Craig Ostbys NOS Valves. If you are interested in tube amps sourcing one should be of little concern. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find a number of relatively simple amps discussed, including schematics, which offer outstanding performance with Klipsch speakers (if I say so myself.........).

Speed Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Thanks, I'll start looking. I've never seen one in person, or heard one. It would be nice if retailers carried a few, so people could see or hear them. Retail dealers only seem to carry AVR's, as home theater seems to dominate the market place.

richieb Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Can't remember each and every one, I'm getting on in years! But right you are and to think I just took delivery of one of Justin's creations yesterday. Like I said, I'm old. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydukej Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I've been wanting to dive into the Heritage line for awhile (eyeing Heresy iii), but I think procrastination will have paid off. Here's to hoping to have the Fiii's as my intro to Heritage. Thanks to all the input from the veterans on here, that helped cut down on my productivity at work today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
