Not louder than TV at Full volume and gain with tube saturation.
I build this http://maizingrayz.com/firefly.htm originally but at 1W, still wayyyyy too loud for night practise.

OMG! That is SOoooo COOL!
How much did you spend to build something like that? How many channels?

Abt $200.
Can be build with less than $100 thou.
Reason my build is expensive because I use Carbon Resistors (abt $2ea), audiophile grade capacitor($5 to $10ea) and components. NO MADE IN CHINA components inside. Wiring are done with pure silver solid core cable ($30 per meter).
I have build a couple for friends and sadly, there is little differences between my audiophile build and my buddies off the shelves Sim Lim build.

Schematic here for anyone who is interested to build one.

Note - The transformer and tubes are not available here and some components has min order. Make sense to pool resources together.
