Here's a pic of my new amp that have been waiting for 2 1/2 months to be built. It's an NOS Valves VRD 45st built by Craig Otsby. The craftsmanship is great on this amp.
The best thing, is that it works perfectly with my Juicy Music Blueberry preamp and Klipsch Lascala speakers. Amazing focus and transparent three dimensional soundstage.!jam!

That looks nice.
Tubes and Klipsch are a natural.

Jeez Louise!! Great get. Is it your first tube amp? I bet that amp matches up with those Klipsch's very very well. They don't need much power but what do those tubes put out?

No it's not my first tube amp, but it's my best. It put's out 45 wpc with the KT88's.

I'm in trouble, I think it's not only a beauty, I think it'd run the 'Logans for sweet late night, low level, ear candy *drool* sessions, this is a custom, hand-built rig right? Do you have a link for more info? Can you ask Craig if he has customers use speakers like mine with it? Can he send me one, so he can boast how great it is with 'stats? I think I could squeeze in some time. Tell Craig, Craig wants to know more.

Sweet. I don't have any tube gear, but have always wanted to try some. That's a nice piece.

Here is his link http://www.nosvalves.com/
Call him, he most always answers his calls, if not he will return your call quickly. The VRD's on his site are his mono blocks. I have his stereo version. He builds them after he get's the order. He also has you give a deposit. The man has been in business for a very long time and is very trustworthy.
He's not the fastest, but he is one of the best.

Thanks, James, I know of that Craig, on AK, he posts his name frequently at the bottom of his posts like I do, some folks have gotten us confused. Windwalker is another Craig, he stays out of it*stirpot**sarc*
