Anybody here into tube amps?

Greetings Martin,
I don't have any specs yet. Or a design. I just decided I would like
to do this. 20 watts per channel would be the max output, though I
imagine I will end up with something that puts out much less. I will
amplifying the output of some sort of CD player or mp3 player .

So what do you need. Specs ? lots of them about the shop.
Is it power or is it output ?
What is your design look like ? Got the tubes ?

Greetings Tubulars,
So I have this crazy idea to build a little tube amp just for fun. The
transformers are quite expensive though. I will be looking for old
ones probably because I can't justify spending loads on new ones. So
considering my almost 60 years old ears, 39 of which have been spent
in noisy environments, and my propensity to listen to loud music, what
should I look for that will sound just a little better than I can
hear? Maybe not an audio xmfr will be OK. There are some old tube amps
in a couple local thrift stores. How can I tell if they had good
xmfrs? Or can I?
