Thank you aka ca for your input. I realize I made a mistake. My amp is the arcam Fmj a18. I should not rush to judge the capabilities of the boxers. But with my setup I know the amp is my weakest link. I really don’t want to spend more then 2500 used on my next amp. I am just not thrilled with my sound as of now. The peach tree was a thought but I really rather have a tube intergrated amp. Is there any recommendations for something I will know as a major improvement? Thanks again
Thinking of upgrading at arcam faj a22 for used peach tree audio nova 500
Hi, my current setup is the arcam a22 with clear audio concept and Nola boxers. I want to upgrade my amp first and eventually my speakers. I have interest in peach tree nova 500 used. Would this be a major improvement on my system or should I get something else. It is important to me to have a dedicated phono and ground on the amp. Thanks as always for whatever advice (opinions), you can give me. Charles

Your NOLAs are a very efficient rating of 90db. Simply piling on a larger wpc amp is a waste …big time. It seems that they favour British amps synergy wise. The Brit offerings in your price range are mostly s/s and not tubes. A close s/s proxy to a tube amp in your price range is the SUGDEN A21 Signature that runs in pure Class A that would be a fine contender and no pretender. https://www.sugdenaudio.com/a21-integrated---line-amplifier |
