The Music Reference RM-200 has a Tube output[Preferable IMHO].Lamms in 10K range,I'm out!If you are looking for a more accurate sound, this is your amp.Lush,Romantic veiled in any way look elsewhere.I listen mostly to Prog,Blues Rock,Electronic.Also some Older Jazz and symphonic Classical[Mahler].I need an amp that can keep up the pace and this one sure does.Read the reviews and search archives.FYI I use a Bat VK-3i or A Music Reference Pre or no Pre at all as My SACD/CD Tube output player can control my volume.
Hybrid amps, best of both worlds?
As I see it, you have tube amps, SS amps and then there are hybrids. Tubes and SS have their own properties, but hybrids are supposed to combine the best of both worlds. They are sort of like tube preamp and SS amp. Anyone have one they really like? How about Van Alstyne stuff?
