Looking for a warm sounding amp or integrated with a torodial transformer
Looking for recommendations for a warm sounding integrated amplifier or power amplifier tube or solid state with a torodial transformer power supply. I have multiple chemical sensitivities and the materials used in the rectangular transformers affect me, I'm fine with toroidal transformers. I've been looking at BAT, Modwright, and Pass Labs. Any other ideas? I have a Rogue audio sphinx but would like a bit more warmth.
Thanks in advance!
Here are a few of the warmest sounding amps that I’ve owned that use toroidal transformers. Each had their strength and weaknesses. After trying these as well as many others i’ve settled on Audia Flight. Great amps if you can find one.

@mofojo and @chrshanl37 thank you |
Have you looked at Rega? I recall years ago I was upgrading from a Rega Brio R and the guys at Needledoctor were of the opinion that Rega was the warmest gear they carried and they were Rogue dealers. That was vs. stock tubes so not sure how it would compare with NOS Mullards. I know if is definitely on the warmer side of neutral. Maybe and Elex R? |
Nice system. I recently acquired the CDT 6000 and am very happy with it. I am blown away by the LSA Voyager 350 GaN amp. It is a lot more potent than my previous amp EVS 1200, which surprised me A couple ideas * power cords (Im actually using a $595 PC on my CDT, but I owned it from when I had monoblocks * Speaker distance from front/side walls * Power Conditioner: I have a Core Power and a 20 amp dedicated line
