Amp with best bass control


Which solid state amp(s) have you heard demonstrate the best bass control? I'm not talking "go the lowest", I'm talking "tight tight - super tight grip on the bass". I'm talking "fast" as well. The proverbial Kung-Fu Grip!

Thanks all!

Have you heard Soulution amps? Coloration? Hmm...me thinks you haven't heard them.

Have you heard D'Agostino amps? Vitus? Constellation? Anything SOTA? If your reference is an amp designed in 1999, you need to simply enjoy it for what it is or keep an open mind and listen to some of the current SOTA amps.

Clobbering people over the head with an outdated amp, which many love and some don't, is not the appropriate approach. There are no winners and losers. If we are in search of the absolute sound, sonic truth for ourselves, then our opinions are just that. Opinions. You are free to disagree and so are others with you.

As for your price argument, I will happily put a pair of Classe CAM600's (which I also own) up against the 1060 any day of the week and they will handily trounce then in balance, speed, dynamics, measured performance and sonic quality......oh, and they would save to $10,000.

Enjoy your Boulder amp.....but no one will convince me otherwise. I know what I heard.

That's right, what *you* heard. New is not always better. You don't like the Boulder, good for you. There is always more to the story when members get this animated about defending certain brands. Members reading your comments may rightfully question your agenda.

Melbguy1 - you are paranoid. Move on. You love Boulder - great. Enjoy it.
Excuse me? I think you should take your tripe to another forum and leave folks good and alone to enjoy their hobby instead of spreading crap on this forum. You're the one who needs to move on mate...to another forum!
That's hilarious, This is Mbovaird's thread!, He is the op! melby, we all said the Boulder is good, there are alot better amps than my Krell 700cx and a boulder 1060, or any other Boulder amp! Mbovaird's preference with solid state amps is what it is!, You should be proud, He mentioned Vitus amps!, I know you are A vitus fan!, I would like to hear a vitus amp, never heard one, so I cannot comment on the vitus period! we are not tring to be mean to you!, you put us in a defensive mode here!, nobody enjoys that, I know deep down, you do not enjoy negative words to each other, please, lets all get along Melby!, No matter how much of a well seasoned Audiophile you are, people will like what they like!, an example of what i am talking about is, I do not prefer the sound of Thiel speakers, does not mean that they are not good, Just not my flavor, the same thing can be said about the Boulder amps, The Boulder amps are just not Mbovaird's flavor of sound, that certainly does not mean they are not good! we should never take preferences to the point of saying Hateful words to each other, the funny thing is, we all could start talking about that vitus amp, and we all would be best of friends again!, cheers Melbguy1.
