Tube amp on the IRS Beta


Hi there,

I want to buy a pair of ARC VT150se and I want to let them run with the IRS Beta''s on the high/mid's (tubes is what Arnie Nudell advices, are these the right one's ?)

now the Beta's high/mid's pannels go down to a 2.5 ohm sometimes, can the ARC VT150se handel that?? without any problem???? Yes! oke than... NO ?!? witch tube amp can??

Any feedback please....

THX very much

I used ARC Classic 150s on my Betas. The 2 ohm impedance occurs at the very highest frequencies where little power is required. I also used a VT100 briefly with no problems.

VTL MB450's can't handle the Betas. I'm looking for a replacement.

Try the Audio Research M300 Mk II's (300 watt monoblocks). They are the amps Arnie Nudell built the Betas with and they are very reasonable used. I use them on my Betas and they work great

On my Infinity RS 1-B's I am using the ASL Hurricanes (HP version) on the top end. I am completely happy with these amps!!!
