211 tube amps
Hey there AA folk! I'm curious if any of you out there have found a great amp built on the 211 tube. Yes, the Kondo Ongaku is incredible, but it has an incredible price. So I'm doing some research to find some 211 tubed amps that are somewhere under the $20K mark.
Thanks in advance for your input! |

Yesterday I listened to a pair of Zanden 9600 monoblocks. Used they were being offered for 25k. Pretty nice stuff. This pair was using 211 tubes rather than the normal 845 ones.
Air tight has a resonably priced 211 amp if I remember correctly. air tight 211 Air Tight ATM-211 tube monoblock power amplifier | Stereophile.com Air Tight ATM-211 Mono Amplifier features: � Unprecedented high power 22W derived from broadcast-oriented 211 valve with direct-coupled cathode-follower stage � All-stage triode-driven non-NF Class-A operation to achieve pure, unimpaired sound � Independently coiled transformer for amp-stage, bias, heater and relay circuits to remove mutual interferences � DC-driven heater filament to eliminate hum of output valve � Relay-activated muting circuit for long life of electrolytic capacitor � Bias meter to check operation status of output valve |

I have the Transcription Audio power amp which is built with the 211 tubes. Sounds wonderfully. Will cost you about 6.5k.
