Verity audio finn


HiI have one pair of Verity audio finn speakers. I am curious which amp you use to drive them.Now I use the Spectral 180 but I feel too powerful.
Any suggestion ?

I have listened to these driven by a bunch of amps and I almost bought them.  Very musical speaker.  I am considering buying a pair just to run during audio shows with my Art Audio Carissa Amp.  An 845 is an ideal tube to drive them. Midrange and treble that shines like the sun and really tight bass performance.  

What is your budget?  The 18w Art Audio Carissa will deliver 100dB in volume 10’ from the speakers at max power.

Another killer option would be the 45w Quartet moni-blocks.  Not sure if you have room for mono-blocks though.  104dB in volume at 10’.

I would take the spectral on trade for either amp if you are interested.  
Op there is no such thing as too much power on the contrary speakers blow from too little power and clipping. 

 If you are looking at making a change in your system you need to look at the entire playback chain and determine the weakest link! 

Spectral makes wonderful amplifiers which drive Verity speakers well!

Also tube amplifiers require maintainance, are noisy and generate considerable heat. That is not saying they dont sound good.

If you make a change do it for the right reason.

Agree the OP should change for the right reason.  Looking at the preamp and sources are important.  

 That being said, not all tube amps are noisy.  Art Audio is highly selective with its transformers to ensure the amps are absurdly quiet.  Part of that is driven by our amps mostly serving height efficiency (100dB+) speakers that are very sensitive to even the tiniest amount of transformer hum.

These auto bias, have solid state rectification and typical tube life is 3000 hours.  These are as good as it get with tube amps.  Replace the tubes every few years and it’s like you have a new amp.  

Also, these generate no more heat than a typical Class A amp.  That being said, Class A amps do generate a lot of heat.
