How would the group match?
preamps: Fe Pumpkin, Pass BA 3 front end, SRPP K79
Power amp: Aleph 100 monoblocks, Singing Bush (2SK 77 B), Wolverine (70 V rails)

it really depends what you're looking for

regarding preamps, if no/moderate gain is in case, Iron Pumpkin rulez them all

and - if needing more gain, best scenario - Iron Pumpkin set to 0db, serving as bespoke selector/volume control, followed with any gain stage made properly in separate enclosure

then - amp - what's best for room-speakers-ears combo

what's Aleph 100?

I presume big Aleph, made to have 100W per channel?

Yes it is the 100wpc aleph build
Wolverine is the 240 wpc build
Room is my lower level fairly large
You know the SB output
JBL 4367 speakers

choice of amp - as I said - whatever moves your feet most, in said room with said speakers

I believe Iron Pumpkin is sufficient regarding gain for any of these amps

in case that you want more sugar (even harmonics) with some amp I believe that already mentioned - setting Iron Pumpkin to 0db and using, say, K79 gain stage after, would achieve that

though, take care of setting gain of system (thinking of optional gain stage) that volume control is near max for max SPL you need, so no signal wasted in system
