I have a Raven Reflection MK2 Integrated tube amp that powers Sonus Faber Amati Tradition Homage speakers. Outstanding sound, beautiful pieces to display. You should look up Raven Audio and call Dave the owner. You did not indicate what your budget level was. Raven have a couple of integrated options. He also uses a lot of rare tubes in his amps. Plenty of power!
Picking a Tube integrated amp
Hey all. Trying to figure out my amp situation and am looking at a few integrated to upgrade to.
I currently have a McIntosh integrated and want to move to tubes. I have the vivid v1.5speakers and a Clearaudio Concept. Looking at the following:
—Primaluna Dialogue premium or HP.
—Audio Research VSi60
—Octave v40SE
Question...does the AR still hold up? It’s likely it will be a used model, but curious if it’s still competing with the others I listed. Any others to consider?
Thanks!
