A friend of mine has just got one of those Music Angels, and he is very happy with it. It was his first experience with valve amps, and it has been a good one.
If you can go a bit higher this might be a good deal:

The Unisis-is-is-is-is was a striking confection of chrome wonderment. Sounded nice too I remember and didn't thrash the valves as my Genesis Mono's did at the time..

Thanks for help friends,
I'm looking for my first valve amp. I have NAD C355Bee and it is not enough musical when I listen music not too loud.
My speakers are Acoustics Energy Neo3 (which I will sell and buy new in the future). This was my first stereo. The source is squeezebox touch.
My MAX budget is 500 including shipping to ROI. I heard that wd KEL84 is good amp and I would be interested in buying one of this. Are there any better deals around?
Thanks,
Don McCorleone

There is a KEL for sale on the WD forum. Do you want me to contact the seller for you?
