Sonus Faber Grand piano home

I have a pair of the SF Grand Piano Concerto and drive it with a VAC Avatar, a 60w tube integrated amp. It works really well with the speakers, especially in the triode mode, and the result has been amazing. Female vocals and strings are so real that you'll think you just converted your listening room to a live jazz club. If you perfer a lush/romatic and warm sound to your music, you can't go wrong pairing your SF Grand Pianos with a tube amp. Unlike the more edgy sound from some of the solid states, You'll never get tired of listening.

When I was shopping for an amp, I've also considered the following:

Tube:
Conrad Johnson CAV50
Jolida 502B
VTL IT-85
Manley Stingray

Solid State:
Musical Fidelity A300/A3.2
Classe CAP 151
Arcam Diva A85
Creek 5350

I've also auditioned the HOME version of the Grand Pianos and they are great as well. Happy Shopping...

I have them (just upgraded) and I think if you run them with a VTL ST75 integrated (or is it 85?) you will have a lot of fun. Also could try the CJs but they have less power.

Stevenkc,

Which solid state performed the best out of the onces you listed. I'm considering the MF A3.2
