RE: Help me pick SET monoblocks

93dB is hardly High Efficiency, so not ideal for low powered SETs. However, an SET with beefy output valves such as 845 will provide plenty of power.

I have Consonance Cyber 845 mono amps and they are rated at 28 watts, so plenty for most speakers. I use them with my Avantgarde horns (102 dB) but have tried them with Quad 2905 electrostatics (86 dB) where they sound good at low volume levels, but are not suitable as a match.

They cost probably double your budget, but a used pair could probably be found within your limit. They look great too!

6 Moone also gave a glowing review to the 16 watt 211 version - http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/norvinz/norvinz_2.html
