^^^Highly recommend T+A PA 3100 HV or A 3000 HV with any of those SF speakers. Just don’t let anyone talk you into pairing SF speakers with Audio Research and McIntosh :-)
T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components
I'm keeping this broad and open to T+A's HV Series components (HV = High Voltage),
Which (currently) includes two integrated amplifiers, two multi-source players, preamplifier, amplifier, power supply, and SACD/CDP/DAC.
Creating this thread for owners to share their impressions, findings, thoughts, experiences, and questions about their HV components. Comparisons to other T+A Series products are also welcome.

Hi all I’ve been enjoying T+A for around 5 years now. I have a PA 3000 and PDP 3000 SACD/DAC which I have no intention of changing any time soon. It’s taken a few year though to finally find a speaker that brings out every last detail but last year I had on demo a pair of Tad CE1’s and within an hour of playing some of my go to tracks I told the dealer to order me in a set with their matching stands, the dealer almost fell off my sofa as I made quite an expensive decision so quickly. The T+A gear is so well made and to me hard pushed to beat. The Tad speakers are not the easiest to drive but the PA 3000 drives them with ease even at ear bleeding levels. In my experience with T+A they can be fussy with system matching but once you get it right they are hard to beat but this is just my opinion, it’s all about enjoying the music |
+1 @garfield01 Always a pleasure when we find the right combination of gear we can live with long term. I'd love to hear the PA 3000 driving your TAD speakers!

I’m in the uk and to be honest Tad isn’t that we’ll known over here but I needed a speaker that wasn’t to particular about positioning and placement as with some of the big names I tried like the new Wilson Sabrina’s which I really wanted to work but they over powered my L shaped open plan room, also B&W 802d’s and so on. For me the Tad and T+A combo sounds so analogue, I’m currently using the Auralic Aries g2.1 using the PDP 3000 HV Dac which is still an impressive machine and I think a bargain if you can get your hands on one. For me what I’m trying to get across is I’ve tried all the cables, power leads Vitus and McIntosh 12000 when it first came out which again are all nice sounding units but as soon as I put my old system back together I fall in love with the T+A sound all over again and found for me the biggest change I made to my system was the Tad ce1 speakers. It’s a frustrating expensive hobby always trying to chase that perfect sound but sometimes we need to just have a beer, relax and enjoy what we have ( till the next good revue comes out and feel the urge to start the process all over again )🙄😬
