    Curious about monoblocks

    I've never used monoblock amplifiers and thus don't know much about them other than the basics. If I were to investigate some "entry level" models, what should I look for? I'm open to thoughts on tube vs. solid state, brands, models, eras, you name it. Educate me oh knowledgeable ones.
