HP 110 amps from star sound. Check out audiopoints.com. The site doesn't do credit to these remarkable amps. I have a big system with a dedicated acoustic treated room and had listened to great stuff from Levinson, Krell, Spectral, Pass, and many more. I was ready to buy these name brands when a friend convinced me to demo the HPs. When properly broken in these cool running seemingly low powered amps are as dynamic as anything I have heard. Very rememiscent of the tube amps. The more I play the more they have openned up and I am already way beyond being satisfied. I don't know how these guys do it and I really would like for someone else in the business to review these although I know what I am hearing and was skeptical at best at the outset. I have Revel Studios and these more power them up. Unless you need a big power rated amp to compensate for other lesser equipment than the HPs are more than enough for almost any application. My buddy is seamlessly running some big Dunleavys with these. Check audiopoints.com.
What's your High End best buy/unknown components?
There seem to be so many choices in high end audio products and only the most popular (reccomended/marketed) products are the one that sell. It would be interesting to compile a list of components that have not received as much exposure in the press or not been reviewed or listed as "reccomended" or heavily marketed that are truly excellent or best buys(not necessarily inexpensive) in audio. Nice to hear some dealers' comments since they are exposed to more components than we consumers.
