tube amp advice foe Dunlavy scIII'S


After much soul searching, Im scraping the ss amp and moving to a tube amp. My knowledge is limited. I will keep my Dunlavy's and am searching for advice as to tube amps that can drive the Dunlavy's. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks Andy.

You'll get great results with an ARC VT-100II, better with a VT-200. I use a VT-200 with Dunlavy SC-V's and it's wonderful.
Conrad Johnson MV-55 is for you! VAC is more "neutral", and with Dunlavy would make too "bright" of combination.
Try the Wolcott Presence monos. I believe they're one of the best amps. They match well with my Dunlavy V's.
I am using an ARC VT100mkII with my SCIIIs and it is outstanding. VT200 might be necessary with larger Dunlavys but not with the IIIs. You can use the 8ohm connections which provide awesome dynamics. Good luck finding the best match for you.
I went from solid state to tubes when I bought my Dunlavy V. I am using the Melos triode monoblocks and think they are great for my tastes. I've tried the CJ Monoblocks and the ARC VT-200. I prefer a warmer sound than the ARC for classical music and am not fond of the CJ house sound. The Melos also have terrific bass. You should try to hear some of the amps discussed because they do have noticably different sounds. Coming from ss amps I recommend you listen first.
