Your favorite KT 150 based amplifier?

After decades of wanting a Audio Research amp, but still reticent because of tube life and their reputation for unreliability I went to a demo of the new REF ARC 160m. They finally put the tubes under microprocessor control… auto biasing, extending tube life and reliability. I said as soon as they released a stereo version version I would buy one. I did. It is an incredible amp and has significantly improved my system. The amp also has been reviewed everywhere gaining the highest praise. A tremendous amp, without the fuss of some. 

The ARC REF75se is a long lover amp as well.


Looking back, I probably should have bought a ARC amp years ago. But really glad I did now.

Well I've only heard one. The Allnic T-2000 and it is an excellent sounding amplifier.

I just recently purchased an Octave V70 Class A that is stunning. It came with KT120’s and I have went back and forth with KT150’s. Love them both so I can’t really decide. With my Spatial M3 Sapphire I think I prefer the KT150’s but either way it is a very nice pairing.

BTW: specs are

Nominal impedance 8Ω
Sensitivity 88dB SPL (2.83V, 1m)
Recommended amplifier power 50 to 250 watts unclipped programme

Thanks so far. @twoleftears thanks for providing my speaker specs.

I hadn't thought of Allnic, interesting product. I'm considering the older ARC gs150 instead of newer 160 just due to value, but I'd love to hear either. The octave also really appeals, but I don't need an integrated.
