Hi all, this summer I bought an ibasso p3+ and it's really an interesting device, in particular I love the signal, buffer and ground rolling, it really rocks.
The "problem" is that it is portable and so far I've used it only at home, so I think I don't need a portable amp.
Can you suggest me an amp full-size under 200€? I spent about 180 for the ibasso because of the spedition cost.
I'm really fascinated by valve amps but the hybrid amps fascinated me much more, so you can roll valves and op-amps.

What would you suggest?

PS.: actually, right now I'm searching for a european builder of CTH.

The Head-Direct EF1 is a great product but a bit over your budget.


Also, the Millet Starving Student is a kick ass amp that you can build yourself or buy for fairly cheap.

Which one is better? CTH or EF1?

Use search & look for reviews/comparisons. I won't comment as I could be biased

I will say that if I was in the market for a commercial, non-DIY tube hybrid the EFs would be on my list. If you're any commutable distance to a meet that's the thing to do.
