Wavac MD 300B Monoblocks

Hello all:

I was thinking about purchasing a pair of Wavac MD 300B Monoblocks to match with my Peak Consult Empress. No nearby Wavac dealer and I was just looking for a few opinions before making a 500 mile trip to audition. (which of course I will before purchase)

I do not have much experience with SET's or Wavac. I'm using Gamut D200 mk3 and the sound is quite good; just looking for alittle variety and hopefully better than "quite good".

I'd appreciate any/all opinions and experiences.

Thanks much
Brian

HI Brian- that's a great pre-amp that you have and if the Peaks have a benign impedence curve, you might want to demo Atma or Joule amps. You can get quite a bit more power for "less than the cost of an economy car" They both match very well with my Ren pre (just make sure you use the balanced out with the Atmas.

Brian:
Before spending that kind of money on a Wavac, suggest you look at Wavelentgth Cardinal X2 monoblocks which are similarly priced. They have a plain look, but the best internals. Wavac externals are glitzy, but why pay for that?
