Does it have to be cheap? And/or usually means one or the other, ideally both.
TT combos go secondhand for about 400-500. They aren't cheap, but they are inexpensive for what you get.
I suppose knowing more about your intentions for this small and/or cheap amp would be helpful...because cheap price and cheap amp are 2 very diff things :idk:

Take a look at VHT amps. Specifically the Special 6

Point to point. 6v6 power tube. 4, 8, 16 ohm cab out.

It is quite amazing
