Looking for a SS integrated Amplifier recommendation going into a new system
While waiting for a new speaker delivery, I have some time to start looking for a SS integrated amplifier, and hoping for some recommendations.
The speaker to pair with is Ascend Acoustics Sierra Tower with RAAL tweeter option that is around 91dB efficient, and the room size is 12x18x8. I mostly listen to classical, jazz, female vocal, and the listening level normally is around 85dB, occasionally go up to 90dB.
I originally was looking for class-A integrated amplifier, but now would like to open the possibility to class-A/B as well to see what will be a good match for this new system I am putting together.
TIA

I have several kits, including the new Technics Su-R1000 easily driving Floor standing B&Ws with ease and it is an amazing 10K digital amp. However, as the OP has indicated a preference for Class A/B amps, my experience with those is also profound. I know many responses refer the Luxman 590. It is an excellent amp. Personally, I have McIntosh separates in my main system and a MA-:5300 running LS 50s in a small offi e set up. All produce excellent yet different signature sounds. My current favorite though is the new MICHI Line. I heard both the MX 3 and the MX5 and they are on your price point, heavy well made and amazingly dynamic. They range from. $6 to about $10k and are quite a package. Whatever you choose as always is subjective to your personal spund tastes and peripheral equipment being amplified. Good luck in your purchase. |
If you want to buy a new amp I think the Bryston B135 is great Heard it at a dealer. https://twitteringmachines.com/review-bryston-b135-cubed-integrated-amplifier/ |
