I would say the amps I make do not have a bloomy, "tubey" sound most people think of. For me a good tube amp has realism and space. This amp in particular has relatively low distortion for a transformer coupled tube amp. It leans more to the clean side of tube amplifier sound, it scores high marks for clarity, airiness, and soundstage for me, but I wouldn't say it sounds solid state, it still have some warmth. I've used both Caldera and Susvara with it, and I would say they pair quite well.
@goldwerger may be able to add some insight as he has heard this amp next to others and might be able to say how the Caldera sounds on it vs. a more bloomy or "tubey" sounding amplifier and which is a better match synergistically.
