Does this imply that the price is for a pair of monoblocks? I may be missing something, but it's ambiguous if the price is per amp or for the pair. Thanks

The price is per amplifier. Sorry about that! Steve

You can bias the tubes between 50 and 80 milliamps. Even at 80 mills the KT88's will last on average about two years of regular use. The Zen TORII MKIII amplifier runs it's tubes at about 50 mils.

They're great, but I put the Torii back in the system yesterday. The beef is back, so to speak. The Heaths are super fun, and I really would like to try one of their big brothers(maybe the U-5's at 25 watts) for a better comparison with the Torii. But heck, the V caps aren't even broken in yet and so it's not right to compare anyway. But considering what the Heaths cost fully restored and with NOS tubes I like having them in the collection anyway.
