Hi I need recommndations on an int. amp or pre-power combo to power a pair of Von schweikert VR4-jr. I would like it to be musical,detailed and with a nice sound stage .I would prefer new stuff but you can also recommend on used - budget is up to $3k.Thanks
I have a McIntosh MA 6900 solid state integrated amp with these speakers and couldn't be more pleased. I never hear compression at any volume. This m odel can be be had for around your budget.
Don't tell anyone I said so, but word is that the DK integrated has an impressive synergy with the 4JRs. Do a search and you'll find a number of people who were shocked at how well these two worked together. The price for a brand new DK dovetails right into your budget. Shhhhh...
You might also consider a used BAT VK 300x. You can usually find one in the classifieds at or around your price target. This is a very sweet combination (not sure about the SE version, as I have not heard it personally.)
