The FW amps are basic and decent for the money. We have cloned them with better parts and achieved much better results. If you need to hear a Class A amp, PM me and I will send you one for you to hear.
Happy Listening.
First Watt J2 & speaker pairing ?
I'm trying to decide if the J2 is worth the effort ? All reviews are favorable , some even glorify the sonic nature of this 25 watt amp. I'd like to see what the deal is with a class A amp - it seems like it's all I could ask for in an amp * Except and this is a big exception -the need for highly efficient speakers to appreciate the amp.
Don't mind shopping for another pair of speakers but realistic choices seem so limited. Zu audio seems to be a big favorite pairing .
I'm running a Rogue audio cronus mag lll with Dahlquist DQ 10 speakers ( older speakers ) also have Spendor s5e's Don't think either will ideal match with J2
Really enjoy the open ,wide range of the DQ10's
Any suggestions are most welcome
thanks in advance

I've been told by a knowledgeable audio retailer / friend that the FW J2 is just about the best class A he has heard . This piqued my curiosity . It'd be nice if it was more powerful making speaker matching easier . It's not and that is probably part of the reason for its pure sounding nature. ? Don't really know ....yet . What I do know is what I'm looking for better sound stage & imaging , dynamic with reasonable accuracy. I've been using an older Stereo 70 with older speakers and there are moments that are just astounding. Just want more of that. |
@rocray, No feathers ruffled here. You gave a more informative, helpfull answer. This didn`t surprise me, I expected such an answer after my prior post. I was just poking fun at myself. |
