What’s the budget?
LTA has fancy pants tube amps that weigh next to nothing for 4K+ and are supposed to sound excellent. I can’t see the value there but I don’t know what goes into it but they are pretty much universally praised.
Best sounding low power (under 80watts) Class AB amp?
What the world needs is a nice sounding lower power class AB amplifier under 35lbs. I'm tired of power sucking light-bulb dimming Class A designs and 80+ pound Class AB immovable boat anchors on dollies. Tubes and Class D need not apply.
An Audio Research 100.2, CJ MF-80/MF-2250 come to mind. What else is there?
What do you think? I'm I the only one?
