There are a lot of good amps out there.  The TT Centurion is a good example.
Has 2 3-500Z tubes which are still available,
Has break-in CW,
Built well,
Still is sold and service by TT.
I sent mine in (Gray face about 18 years old) and they repaired in a about 48 
hours.
I had arced the main tuning cap and had to have it replaced.
The Black and Gray are the same amp.

Hmmm... why do you say this, JB ... are the gray faced
amps less capable than the black faced amps?   Should
I avoid the gray faced units?  (He asked because he is
actually considering adding another amp to the shack
for contesting and special events for use at remote sites
other than the home shack...)
