artemus_5 - I appreciate the advice, thank you. I see the VTA & Don Sachs are both just power amps, any recommendations on integrateds?
Trying to free up space a bit.
Buy Back Old or Move On?
I am putting together my retirement system; it has to outlast me (20 years) or at least my hearing. I have an opportunity to purchase back my old Coda CSiB amp which is coming up 10 years old now and recapped in 2019.
I'll be into it for about $3,000 or so by the time it arrives on my door. It will drive KEF R11s, have decent out-board DAC and some form of a steamer for digital music listening only.
Do I go back to it or move forward, any thoughts? If forward, what would you suggest?
Thanks

@high-amp, Said:
YES. Quicksilver integrated amp.

ditusa - thanks, does the Quicksilver on have 4 output tubes as artemus_5 suggests? Also, I thought one of the cool things about tube amps is watching the tubes. Looks like the QS's tube can't be seen from the listening position, unless you're standing up? |
This would be an interesting option....I've heard the 2170 and it is a great sounding amplifier...and that is without turning the room perfect feature on...and like Coda, they hold their resale value. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649807204-lyngdorf-tdai-2170/ https://lyngdorf.steinwaylyngdorf.com/lyngdorf-tdai-2170/
