This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in.


I am buying Dynaudio C-1 Platinums and would like an ideal amp. Which would you choose? I prefer solid state. Separates or integrated. If you could recommend a few optimum choices that would be great. Based on my short couple years on here you strike me as very knowledgable on the subject. My dealer wants me on Pass Labs. Incidentally right now I have the Devialet 400 and I’m pretty sure you are not a fan of this type of amp. Any of your wisdom is appreciated. Thanks, Mike

I’m not sure why audiotroy gets people so riled up but I have no problem with someone selling their product.

As long as its clear whether or not the data said seller provides is opinion or fact.
Gdhal what is fact vs opinion? Everything in life is pretty much an opinion when it comes to subjective products.

Is a bottle of $80 Scotch better than a $20 one? It depends on your taste buds and knowlege about Scotch. 

As per the two reviews did any of you guys actually read them?

We had nothing to do with either of these reviews, we don't know Allan Taffel and I think Roger Kano, from Postive Feedback wrote the other review, and we don't know him either. 

I mean common when the Postive Feedback guy states that the $21k T+A amp is in the same class as a $45k D'agastino and you are in the market and can afford such a product would you:

A: Pay twice as much for a D'agastino Momentum Integrated and just trust that because it is a D'agastio it has to be better and be done with it

or:

B: Try to figure out where I could listen to the  T+A piece and see if it really sounds as good or possibly better for half the price?

As per Gpgr4blu's past comments on seeing other products getting similar screeming value reviews, ie a much less expensive product doing battle with one that is 2-3 times its price, I can't really remember seeing too many of those. 

Usually you get what you pay for. 

Musifx read our posts went to his dealer and came to the same conclusion and now is happily in the same camp, and he owns a T+A 2500r integrated, the problem is with all the negativity you guys engender very few people want to chime in and state their experiences. 

You can search up his forum posts and see for yourself.

Per Mr. Mcgrogan, yes who doesn't like a little T+A? 

You will also notice we have never said it is the best, we have said many times that is among the best, YMMV, and is generally priced 1/2 to 1/3rd the price of the best gear.
