Hello, Has anyone auditioned that amplifier? It is a SE, 12w solid state design. I read some very good reviews, but I trust more the opinions of the independent audiophiles in the forum, before I buy it. Thank you
It doesn’t have a lot of time on it yet. So far it sounds great. It probably has more in common sound-wise with the E2se than many other amps I’ve heard.
I think vocals/midrange are a little more spotlighted with the F7. I need a little more time to digest what I’m hearing. The F7 might have a little bigger soundstage and possibly a little more detail in the treble.
I figured they were quite similar but was under the impression that the e2se overall would be a tad ahead when it came to being detailed and powerful, yet sweet.
I think the E2se might be a little more relaxed but not night and day difference. It’s funny, I’m really enjoying the F7 right now but think a few weeks of break in should be necessary. I will say that the F7 feels like it runs a heck of a lot hotter.
