@jbhiller probably a disciple of ASR, there was a super long discussion on the site talking about how great that amp is. Still no need for blanket ridiculous statements.
Anyone pairing Cornwall IVs with solid state amplification to good results?
Because I have an obsessive need to try out all sorts of gear, I paired my Cornwall IVs with a nice Marantz PM KI Ruby integrated. What surprised me was I actually liked a Class D design at a "reasonable price" and the resulting sound is more than livable. It's a great pairing.
There's little chance I sell off my tube museum of gear and valves, but this experiment was a pleasant surprise. I have now tried them with push pull EL 34, KT88/KT120, KT150, 300 B, and Class A solid state, and Class D solid state.
Any of you out there in hifi land using a solid state amplifier with Cornwall IVs or a horn loaded speaker to great effect? I am appreciative to hear your experience.
