I have had great success with my Conrad Johnson Premier 11A driving my 2.5s. Just about any amp will drive any ProAc Response speaker at least up as far as the 3.8. Even tiny S.E.T.s will drive them well. I would think if you are fond of EL34s the Premier 11xs would be a perfect match, very well built, great sound, and in your price range used. The one most important thing with ProAc Responce speakers is that the are very fussy about the quality of amplifacation, not so much the power.
Tube Amplifier Rec. for Proac 1.5 or D 15?
Hi,
I am asking recomendations for a good tube amplifier from the experienced that have listened to a pair of Proac 1.5's or D-15's using various tube amplifiers?
I like the sound of a good EL34 or EL84 based amplifier, but I think the Proac's will need a minimum of 40 watts to get the best from them. The experienced users may know better about the power needed to run the Proac's than I do.
The buget for the amp purchase will be under $2000, used would be the bang for the buck.
Any suggestions will very much appreciated.
