I'm looking for any and all comment regarding the Monarchy SE-250 Monoblock Amps. I'm looking to replace my tube monoblocks(major heat issue!!) I haven't seen much print on the SE-250's. I have read reviews on the SE-100's and SE-160's.

Link to the Monarchy website:  http://www.monarchyaudio.com/

Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated!!

I had a pair of souped up SE100's and they were real toaster ovens!  Class A will do that.  So if heat has been an issue these might not satisfy you.

They sounded great.  I didn't like the lack of a soft start and they "popped" my speakers everytime.  But now I am in Moscode heaven.

Here is a link to a review on the 250's

Eric, thanks for the link to the review. I've now moved on to looking at the McIntosh MC-252?? I'm going to check one out this weekend here in Chi-Town.
