What Amp with Sonus Faber Olympica 3?

i think the pass is an excellent choice sam - you will some tubelike warmth and fullness with solid state bass control on the low end

let us know how you like it

Thanks. I’m excited to get it jjss49. Should really open these speakers up. I’ll report back in a week or so. Thanks again everyone for the advice and these threads are always fun. Well not for Tom 😆😜

I am enjoying the 150.8. It has taken some time to grow on me but my speakers needed some break-in as did the preamp.  Things are smoothing out quite nicely. At first I wasn't sure I was going to warm up to the amp however, as usual everything needs to settle for awhile. Changing the front 2 tubes on the EVO 400 preamp to Mullard CV4003 really helped the focus and take some edge off. The stock tubes aren't bad but this is where I was experiencing unwanted energy so to speak. The 150.8 has PLENTY of power and the needle doesn't even move so I am staying in Class A. Lots of depth and layering  :)

glad everything is settling in and you are enjoying the music!

best thing all primaluna owners can do for better sound is get those grim chinese input tubes outta there (and buy a pass too LOL)

Working on those tubes 😜
