I've heard some nice demos with Audio Note, but for your music preferences and the Tannoy speakers I'd suggest at least auditioning Manley amps. They offer some of the best bass among tube amps and are a known match with Tannoys. The Snappers meet your price point when used. No reason they wouldn't work well with your other speakers too.
Tube amp mono block recomendations
Hello,
I am looking for recommendations up to $5000.00 mostly on the used market. My listening is moderate volume, Blues, 70’s rock, some Mainstream Jazz.
I like a little forward brighter sound due to some hearing loss in the Mid frequencies.
My system is currently:
Audio Note M3 Line pre tube
Audio Note 3.1 DAC tube
Linn LP12 with AN / Rega arm
Fisher sa16 amp tube.
Speakers:
Audio Note AN K spe
Snell type E
Tannoy MG’s
My tendency is to go with Audio Note to complete the synergy but would like recommendations for something else. I am not very experienced with the sound characteristics of various Tube amps.
Thanks
