I'm not exactly a tube aficionado, but I have a Luxman SQ-N100 using EL 84s (using Fold Lion tubes at the moment) and love the sound with headphones and small monitors (currently PSB Imagine Minis). It's very good in the midrange at low-reasonable volume levels and gets instrumental timbres right. It just can't play very loud.
