Amp for Talon Raven C

Hi Bhouser
that sounds very interesting.which vac do you use?did you try other pres ?
i am playing with the idea of buying a w5.i really like that it doesn't run hot.if you could keep me posted on your findings about your comparison after breakin of the w5.

did anybody try the new ICE amps or has any input on them how they could match with ravens.there is a lot of hype.
they easily deliver a lot of power but i would be curious how their synergy with the talons is.acoustic reality offers some great deals.

Ndeslions did you follow this new "trend" having a tact and what do you think?
thanks for all the help

I think that i replaced 15.000$ of components (Orpheus One DAC, Classé CP65 pre and GamuT D200) with 5000$ of Tacts and get a better sound.
Now i don't feel the need to replace my electronics every 3 or 4 months anymore.

I've often thought that Blue Circle amps would be good match for Talon speakers. I haven't heard any pairings, it's just that Blue Circle amps take hold of speakers like no other amp I've heard, especially in the bass ranges, and still retain an incredible musicality. Talon is well known for its musical speakers. 2 + 2 = something more than 4?

Has anyone heard a BC/Talon pairing or have any thoughts on the match?

Regards

The EC 220's in mono are a GREAT pair of amps for Talon speakers. Also, the Cary SLP 98 is also a wonderful complement to this outstanding brand of speakers. MM
