Which integrated amp for Talon Khorus?

Rowland Concentra 2 makes a great amp with the Khorus'

Levinson No. 383

Talon was paired with Electrocompaniet at the last audio show in New York and sounded really nice. Granted, it was a pair of $15,000.00 Nemo mono blocks, but believe it or not, much of the same sonic signature is there to be heard in EC's integrated. The Sim Audio integrated is supposed to be one of the best out there. I have experience with the Bryston integrated and was impressed with how well it drove a pair of B&W 803 Nautilus speakers. Not the most efficient pair of speakers in the world! I own the Peregrine's, and think you'll find happiness with the Electrocompaniet integrated.
Good luck!

I agree that you may not be able to do better than the Tenor 75wi OTL.

I have alot of experience with the Talon products since I ran one of their rooms at the CES show and I am A huge advocate of the advantages of integrated amps.

The very best integrated that I have heard with the Khorus X has to be the Red Rose Model 5 but it is expensive $8000.
Also realize that when I state the best that I have heard realize that all that really means is that it matches my personal taste.

The Rowland and the Aronov are both very good but they are also pricey. As a matter of fact of all the components we had available at CES the Aronov integrated with the Peregrine X's was our favorite match. The Alchemist Product 8 is very good and only retails for $1895, the Electrocompaniet EC1 4 is very good at $3000.

So the question is really down to budget. Another great piece is the Magnum Dynalab receiver MD 208 for $2975. I have not heard any integrated that has not sounded good with the Khorus be it Master Sound to AR. The key to remember is that the Khorus is very easy to drive. Whether you use tubes or solid state you should be fine.

Also realize the top end on the Khorus is a touch more laid back than the X so it depends on which Khorus speakers you have.
