You must really be enjoying this very fine system. Congrats on your choices.

Hey GTE. 
Nice system. How do you power the open baffles? I see they have their self-powered sub, so the amp feeds the 12" mid and AMT.

I'm interested because I was thinking of a 2A3, but then took a turn towards open baffle and I'm thinking it won't have enough power. But if it can drive you 97dB OB maybe there is hope for me.
FWIW, I believe we have the same horn-loaded AMT, open back.

Love the open baffle speakers, they really sound good and open and alive.

Yeah, nice job GTE!  Quality and simplicity.  I'd love to spend an hour in this room.

Really nice systems! Three integrated tube amps awesome and that custom 300B looks great.

Nice setup! So, you rotate the speakers? If so, congratulations, you have discovered a wonderful aspect of this hobby!

I had an Almarro A318B once.
Best damn amp I ever had.
Nice system.
