I am a little confused by its look. From a long time ago or from the future?

I had used Jadis JA500 from 2000 to 2002.

http://www.jadis-electronics.com/en/ja500-20.php

It consists of 4 pieces with whole weight of 240Kg(520lb).

It drove B&W Notilus 801 with utmost authority and unbelievable slam.

It was kind of lifetime experience to own this beautiful and overbearing monster.

But I could not use it during summer time in modest size room.

Thus I let it go and got Silbatone 300B SET amp to drive efficient full range speaker.

350 Watt to 8 Watt

Nobody would have done more drastic reduction of power.

I'm back for more, finished another build yesterday. This is a 6J5 input, 45 output, all CCS-loaded parafeed headphone amp featuring Sowter iron.

Beautiful job. Somehow it reminds me of a cigar humidor. I love it!

In my opinion the by far best looking tube amp is the Woo Audio Wa33.

Price 7.500 to 15.000€ depending on Version. So I wont ever own that beauty myself

Not sure about the aesthetics. It’s just very big, with impressive output tubes...
