But they aren't, because there is no traceability, no consistency, and
the end buyers are idiots, and so they don't.

**Precisely.

OK, as a 'double idiot' (I bought two Chinese SETs) I still say if you want
to hear a SET in the UK you are stuffed, other than hauling down to London
in the hope of getting a fairly brief listen to one in a posh boutique - no
good to me, I need time to audition kit properly in my own home, with a
variety of music and the other kit.

Youi desperately need to build one yourself. It's called paying your
dues. You'll find it stinks and part it out, probably, but you can
always build a good amp out of the parts and the OPT can be used for a
guitar amp (where single ended makes some sense).

You don't follow Keith's entertaining rambles much do you ?
