Eldragon: There is NO problem with bass in the Kharmas. Fremer must be crazy or just really blew setting them up in his room. Everyone I know that has heard the speakers calls it the most accurate bass they have ever heard. The upcoming rooms will attest to this.
Amp suggestion for Kharma Ceramique 2s??
I am looking to upgrade my amplifier. I have used low-powered SS amps (47 Labs Gaincard and Aloia 13.01i) with fantastic overall sound, but they didn't have enough power for my large family room (needed more bass and macro dynamics). If you have any experience with any Kharma speakers, please let me know which amps have worked well and which haven't. I listen mostly to intimate jazz (vocal), classical and occasional rock.
The order of importance for me is musicality, palpability, transparency and resolution, but I believe that you can't achieve the first three without resolution. As you can see in my system below, I am taking a minimalist approach to maximize resolution.
Anyhow, I'm open to Tube or SS as long as they have quite, black background. I prefer monoblocks (particularly interested in Claytons and Blue Circle BC8), but that is not a requirement. My budget is about $4000 used, and the amp(s) MUST have RCA inputs. If you can help, I'd truly appreciate it. Thanks.
My system consists of:
- RAM-modded SACD1000 with > 3v output (Awesome sounding!)
- DYI Silver Interconnects (the only interconnects!)
- EVS Nude Attenuators
- ???? POWER AMP(s)
- FMS Zero speaker cables
- Kharma Ceramique 2.0
- Audio Tekne power cables
- BDR cones and pucks, Soler Points, Aurios, etc.
