Can anyone suggest a ss stereo or monoblock power amp that has a warmer sound? I am open to ideas on how to warm up a "bright" sounding system. Thanks,Johnny7
Muse 160. Saw one or two for sale recently. Ideas? Identify the source of the brightness and replace it or fix it. Most likely culprits are your speakers, room, and source, in that order.
Johnny7, could you describe your current setup? Typically in a ss system the source of brightness is the mismatching of components or dirty AC power. Try substituting different ICs and speaker cables into your system, and audition some aftermarket AC cords or power conditioners. Good luck and happy listening!
I use the Audio Research LS9, which is not at all bright. There was one advertized on one of these web sites a few days ago for $750.00. That's a good price as retail was $2000.00. It has a remote and balanced inputs and outputs in addition to RCAs.
