$$$Sensitive Speakers with $$Amps?
Alkso, try out the sleeper and giant killer of the year amp, the TBI Millenia. Their is a review of this at TNT audio here on the net. When you hook up a 24V battery system to it, you will hear more detail than you have ever heard before, while staying very musical. A friend of mine has the Rethm Trishna's and he prefers the TBI over his MiniWatt N3 by a fairly large margin. |
My area of focus is with sensitive speakers being driven by low-watt amps. Are there really super values out there for these type of amplifiers, or do the typical spending rules apply?kennythekey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well there area few issues with SET amps, They are not my cup of tea. But I LOVE if not ADORE high sens speakers. When my high sens speakers are ordered next month, my plans are to set up 3 amplifiers. KT88 100 watter EL34/35ish watter SET 250 tube, not sure the wattage, maybe 25ish. My bet is the EL34/Dynaco Mark4 DIY amp will come out by a slim margin as the winner. IMHO The EL34 may just be the most perfect tube for high sens speakers. We will see. Will the 100 watt KT88 work out? Ancedotally I've been told, yes it will be acceptable. |
spatial presentation which won me over. Not as haunting, but intimate, open, and refreshing, were the Voxativ Ampeggios I heard in Montreal 2011.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I keep running across good things said of the Voxativ, My comments on their performance will be straight up. The good and the bad. Stay tuned. |
