no preamp
streamer straight to RME dac
which of these four amps for Wharfedale Elysian 4's?
just landed these speakers on a whim and have some local used amps available right now, tight on budget due to cost of speakers and can upgrade to a higher end amp later .....specs show these as 4ohm 92db sensitivity,
available to me at the moment
Yamaha A-S2200
Ayre V-5xe
Parasound A21+
Kinki EX-M7
which of those four might work best to start?
please and thanks
@audiocanada You have a very good speaker, a bonafide giant killer. You may never know how much a seller beat up on the used amp or how soon it could fall apart on you (cause a nagging headache). A pair of Schiit Tyr (Class A’ish topology) giant killer monoblocks "NEW" would run you $3200 with a 5 year warranty + 15 day satisfaction guarantee/full refund return period. 8 Ohms: 200W RMS , 4 Ohms: 350W RMS I am assuming that your used amp "deals" are priced more than NEW SchiitTyr giant killers. Good luck with the amp purchase.

unfortunately importing new into Canada has all kinds fees above and beyond that msrp, those Schiit's would run around $5400 CAD and the local used amps I mentioned are less than half that and can be re-sold easily for what I will pay but yeah i get your point, as soon as I have some extra cash will upgrade accordingly
