Greetings. This is only my second post here. Have read a ton and enjoyed it. I'm assembling two systems at roughly the same time. I'm down to amplification for the main system. Here's the components I have:
GoldenEar Triton Reference loudspeakers PS Audio BHK preamp PS Audio Direct Stream DAC PS Audio Direct Stream Memory Player VPI Prime Signature TT with Soundsmith Zephyr MIMC cart Manley Labs Chinook SE MKII phono stage
Should I just finish it out with either the BHK 250 or the 300 monoblocks and have a PSA stack, or would you go a different direction? I have access to Rogue Apollo Darks at a very good price and I am open to other suggestions. I really don't want to tinker, but someday I may look around at other loudspeakers . . . maybe.
@stereo5 - Depends on what we call warm. If you consider the Parasound Halo A21/A23 amps warm, the ICEpower 250 ASP modules I use sound the same to me.
I would go with either the PSA stereo or psa monoblocks. Since the speakers have a built in subwoofer amp, you might not need the headroom that the monoblocks provide. PSA offers a trial period refund policy at some dealers, the dealer I bought my PSA DS dac from didn’t offer a trial period but got a great price.
