Yes, it's "only" 9 watts. You will need efficient speakers to go with it.

At least you've been forthcoming about this fact. Not like you've been on here posting about how amazing audio note is for ever without telling us you
work for them...
Wow.

How loud do you usually play when you master?

I generally listen in the 78-83dBspl range most of them time, but do turn it up for a sec to check how it 'rocks'.
Ever heard of dynamics?
On the subject of the thread, I've heard some great sounding tube amps over the years, but chose the Pass Labs X250 as it sounds
fantastic and I don't have any of the worries associated with tube amps (tube degradation, lack of power to drive large-ish speakers such as my old VH3208s, much less the N802s, etc.). That being said, I had an old Audio Research amp (from before they were called AR) that was 40x2 and after some recapping and new tubes, it sounded great. Not enough juice to power my mains to any real level, but really 'involving' playback.
Still haven't heard a tube amp as accurate as my X250.
