So, if I decided to build a tube power amp kit for my quads what would
people recommend I look at?

How about a tube preamp with phono stage? Any good kits in this category.


IIRC, you're in California, right?
Have a look at
www.upscaleaudio.com
They're located in Uptown Ca.

Owned by Kevin Deal, a real nice guy.
Don't know if he has any kits, but he often has demos or second hand
gear for sale.
He certainly could steer you in the right direction where to get a
suitable amp kit as well.

Other places to look:
www.triodeelectronics.com (IL) Lots of links, too.
www.audiospecialist.com (also in CA)
www.worldtubeaudio.com (a portal that leads to everything
tube-related).

Good luck!

Upscale Audio is in Upland, California, note. I've dealt with Kevin Deal
and agree with your comments. He's very professional and gives reasonable
advice.
He's also quite knowledgable about NOS tubes and will discuss the pluses and
minuses of various brands with you.
