T+A Amps and Preamps?


Does anyone here have experience with the T+A line of amps and preamps? I’m looking for folks’ thoughts/opinions on them, and how they compare to other solid-state gear like Pass Labs. Thanks.

Just replaced my PS Audio BHK 250 with a T+A a3000hv.   Definitely a step or two up.  Quieter, quicker, wider and deeper sound stage.  More palpable sound.  A  bit more forward than the BHK.  The BHK would start to sound a bit congested with loud complex passages.  The T+A doesn't.  Don't get me wrong, the BHK is a great amp for the money.  The T+A is 2.5 times the price.  Still very satisfied with the upgrade.  Using it with a Pass XP 32 pre.

I started another thread regarding T+A products and the fact that I have been getting email adverts from one particular dealer. It has been successful in peaking my interest in the line and I will have to go to Houston to audition. 

Finally did an A/B with the BHK 300 monos vs the T+A a3000hv.  First of all they are both great amps.  I could be happy with either but in a head to head, the T+A was more refined and was also more natural sounding.  It was also quicker and better with micro detail.  I am keeping the T+A.  

I was really interested in the T&A HV line and was close to working a deal with a dealer to buy his demos for a much more reasonable price. At the end of the day I just couldn't justify the outlay for a product unheard and the only true way to know how a system will sound is to get it home in ones own system.
