Amp for new Meadowlark Krestel 2's ?

Have a pair of Krestel 2's on the way. I have had feedback on another thread as to amp matching. I'm using my back up Denon PMA 2000(not all that bad really). It's not a long term answer. Jolida tubes keep popping up. Never tried tubes. I was think integrated-maybe Musical Fidelity, Bryston, McIntosh etc. Any thoughts? Front end is currently Marantz DV 9500.

Beernut,

Simply replace the dimmer with a higher quality unit from Lowes or Home Depot. Chances are the dimmer was installed orginial construction on your home and is probably the cheapest thing on the shelf the builder could find.

Go with a high quality Lutron dimmer. I use one in my dedicated listen room mainly for mood lightly and I get ZERO hum with my Cary SLI-80. Dead Quiet.

I posted the link to the dimmer used in my listening room below for you.

Good Luck!
