Has anyone had any experience with Decware's SE34

The Aronov, I have heard are very good, also the AES amps, nevertheless, if it is possible, you should attempt to audition the integrateds I have refer to. Why? They do not have the tube swapping factor involved, as well as being rather small, original with a great jump factor. Currently my main rig is centered around the Final Music 5 and 6, amp and preamp, entirely battery powered with C and D batteries. I do not think I will change anything in my set up for the forceable future. The Shigaraki integrated amp, I have in a secondary system, but prior to that, it was my main amp for about 1 month....hadn't it been for a great offer that was made to me, I would have kept it there, but even now, it sings beautifully. It has the grunt to make medium efficiency speakers come alive but with high efficiency ones, you WILL be blown away. The midrange might not be SET like, but it is about 95%. I can attest to this, as I compared it with the 300Bs. The excitement with the pseudo midrange warmth of a SET. Check the reviews at 6moons. How SrabaenIf you have any questions about this, drop me a line. I do not think there is a better amp out there, period.

Many full fledged audiophiles have gone the 47 Labs way. It is not that they do not have the means to acquire gear, they do, but there is something incredibly remarkable about the purity of its sonic execution.

Amazing.

Greetings Bemopti123,

I wanted to let you know that I did read the review of the 47 Labs
Shigaraki on the 6moons site. I found it very interesting and informative. Especially, the auditioning of the YBA Integra, Unison's Unico, and of course the Shigaraki.

What do you know about the Unison Unico and the Underwood
Audio mod.1 and mod.2 modifications? It seems that the Unico
Mod.2 Hybrid integrated would be an interesting amplifier to
consider. Also, The Pathos Classic would be another amplifier to consider, I would think. Any thoughts?

Thanks again for making me aware of 47 Labs. I have much to
think about.

The Pathos Classic is suppose to be a really good amplifier. It is tubes on the input section with solid state transistors for the output. No op-amp stuff here.
There is a review in a previous issue of Stereophile (Nov, Dec or Jan - I don't remember). Also, search on the Audio Asylum "Amp-Preamp" forum and you will find some owner comments. If you can afford it then I would lean in this direction. I believe the dealers for this amp offer a 30-day trial.

The Unico's also come highly recommended. I doubt you could go wrong here either. Call Walter at Underwood HI Fi and talk to him.

In consideration of the type of speaker you have, your goal should be the best possible quality and disregard the wattage issue. If I am not mistaken, your speakers are very sensitive and this you can take advantage off by pairing them with the fewest but most the high quality watts you can afford. The higher powered integrated, such as the YBA and also the Unison Unico simply have too much circuitry between the original signal and the output stage. Perhaps that is what the 6moons reviewer noticed when he was comparing all three amps.
Not to discredit the Unico, because I have not heard it, but you might be able to by pass what I went to in order to get to where I am right now. The lesser watts I got to amplify my speakers, the better my system has gotten. Amazing, but it is true. You should go to audition some of these pieces.
I just want to share the joy I have gotten from listening to my Shigaraki and also to my Final Music 6, the latter which I consider the FINEST amplifier I have ever heard to date, regardless of cost.

Thanks to everyone who has responded to my thread. I have alot of research ahead, but thats part of the fun! Thank you for sharing
your knowledge and experience. It is greatly appreciated!
