Amp recommendation for Dunlavy SC V

For great control and full range depth, to stay in your price range, I have to recommend the Pass Labs X250. I had tried many amps, tube and solid state, and the Pass gear fit the bill the best for me. The most pleasing tube amps I had heard with my SC-5s were the Audio Research amps. Enough so that I bought the ARC, and them traded it in to buy the Pass instead. I have no regrets of having the Pass gear, even now (especially now) when I hear other amps. Best Regards.

I know BAT uses Dunlavys to test with...

had bat vk-120 mono blocks into Dunlavy V ate fuses every 5 minutes in the bats not a good match at all. oh the VTL 450 mentioned above does absolutely trounce the bat 120's

I'll second the pass labs. I use an x-350 with my 4a's. It made all the difference im my system.

Classe CAM-350's are a match made in audio heaven, along with tube pre....!!!
