Plinius A-150


I’m narrowing down my search for a new amplifier to the Plinius A-150 in mono which should be an huge improvement based on my current Audio Research Ref 150SE.    I love the sweet but neutral tube sound of the ARC 150SE but I want more tonal density and attack to flushed out in the mid-range.  

There is very little press or real owners that have commented regarding Plinius amps and the only professional reviews places them closer to Gryphon but at a lower price point.  With a smaller toroidal and way less capacitance that I can only image would reduce some of the immediacy and attack/slam but I’m not a bass head so that would not bother me at all, the Plinius in full class A would be in my short list of amps.

Does anyone have the A-150 or mod'ed SA-103 that they can provide real world comments on in either stereo or mono configuration?

OP I have the Plinius SA 100 it’s sounds tube like.I used for my eggleston Andra , KLh model 9, Borensen x1 monitors with good results.I don’t have experience with A150.

@jayctoy What was your previous amp prior to the SA100?  What was the improvements that the SA100 brought to your system?

How would you describe the upper and mid range that the SA100 displays in your system?

OP this is my first high end amp. But I do own tube amps like ViVa and Art audio for my efficient speakers.The SA 100 has a detail character but balance, very fast, bass is very good too.
