Romy, don't be so sure the amp is 2-stage. The ECC99 is a twin triode (mu=22, Rp around 2k) so the two sections could be cascaded, paralleled or the second section used as a CF or several other possible topologies.

Their 2A3 is rated up to 40W plate dissipation so 10W is quite possible (without even going much in A2). It is said to be a good tube, I have not used it yet.

I think Vaic/EML, KR and JJ share some roots but have gone their separate ways. Also, I think the JJ factory is actually in Slovakia.
