Hello again, I really like the push pull amp on horns. I've got tube power with a very big sounding 60 w/channel. I haven't heard the small signal tube amps on the 2 Pi's so I can't comment. My gut feeling is I'd like the sound, but crave the dynamics of the much more powerful push pull amps. I believe Bill Epstein has used both on Pi's, perhaps he'll comment. Either route should make great sound and warm up the room a bit! Good luck to you. Jerrod
