They are very aesthetically pleasing, but at €1340 per matched pair they'd better sound sublime too!

Where did you get their price ?  Do You know some AMP that are using them ?

About this CHALLENGE-se-833-mx  ?    
 
 60 watts at Pure class A and weights 45 kg's.  The output tube reminds a bit on the Wavac amplifiers. Priced at €30.000 for pair.

Not expensive enough.
As per ethics, I'm against low priced hifi.

  I'd rather have two monos for 160 000. Possible ? 


That would foolish, since you could buy the lovely Lamm Ml3 for only 139K$...

  Too cheap. Something fishy, there.


mmm methinks so as well.
 
But hey, you only get what you pay for.
 
At such a low price, compromises are to be expected at some point.
