Tubed amps for WP7s

Oneobgyn, have you heard the Dartzeel?

Many times.

I don't disagree that it is a good amp. I just prefer my Lamm ML 2.1's and that is no disrespect to my friends Jonathan Tinn and Mike Lavigne. It just doesn't rock my sonic boat as do the Lamm.

I may have missed a thread. Have you listened to the 7's with the Dartzeel. If so you have a valid point. My experiences with the 7's were that they needed power to get the bass right. The bass and dynamics of Wilson's speaker is their strong point and without the power I thought they were lifeless. I have not heard the Lamm's with the 7's either so I may be wrong.

I think my Vac Phi 300 is the best amp I have heard. I have heard the Dartzeel. I will say it is the best solid state amp
I have heard. But I think the Phi is much better.

I have heard the Phi 300 on the Wilson 7's. It had total control, despite its average power rating. I have heard it on the MBL 111e's which are pretty hard to drive. I loved the combo. I ever prefered it to the biggest MBl amps. For all the reasons I prefer tube amps.
