Amp for some new Gallos

Thanks Rafael. I've heard that pairing Class D amps (which is what I believe the Spectron Audio Musician III is) can cause problems with tube pre-amps. I don't understand the reason. But until I know what to look out for, I will avoiding the whole class D thing. Also, I live in a smallish apt and 600 W would put me in the street.

I'm driving my ref 3s with a bel canto evo 6 and I like the match very much. Even at low sound levels, the combo is detailed and quite musical. By brother who is impossible to impress praised the sound of my system on his recent visit. I'm in the camp of you can't have too much power. I'm even suspicious of the "tubes rule" dogma band wagon thats in vogue these days.

I once talked to the manager/owner of maple shades. They love Gallo. I havent heard them myself..but they mentioned that they make an amp and integrated tube amp thats very very good with these speakers. I would give them a call. I think they have a pretty good reputation of what good sound is.

Hey Chaz801, I read some of that stuff on their website. Lost in what seems like useful info is a whole lotta nonsense and marketing gibberish.

In reference to your reply Gallo ref speakers. In your post you alluded to problems reported with tube preamps when using class D amps. I have been having some problems with my class D amp. I have several different tube preamps I use with it. My problem is an exaggerated bass almost like puffing or an announcer blowing into the mic-very exaggerated bass. What was the problem you heard about and where did you see it posted.

thanks,
