Alright to everyone here I've come across loads of threads through google and you lot seem to know your stuff so I though I might as well get info first hand and contribute myself when I've got more experience. Eventually I want to build a huge (2-4K watt) tri-amped, valve powered system along the lines of what they use for dub nights hehehe

Hope you are comfortable working with very high voltages.

You might be better off with a hybrid.
