NuForce vs Red Wine

I use both a Placette and a Bent Audio TVC with Ref 9SE V2 without any apparent problems, though I am not yet sold on the Nuforce amps. Perhaps I should try an active pre again, even though it's against my religion.. It should be noted that, as far as I understand, the Sonic Euphoria TVC is a different animal from the Bent TVC.

hi drubin:

i own a bent tvc. what objections do you have with regard to the nuforce/bent tvc combination ?

i was thinking about auditioning the amp with my magnepan, although i am reluctant because i prefer tube amps.

MrT--no objections at all, really, and I think you should try it. My reservations are about the Nuforce amps themselves. Powering my Harbeth Monitor 30's, the combination sounds terrific. But with my Dynaudio Confidence C1's, not good at all. I have no explanation for this, but I doubt the Bent is the problem. So you should definitely try the Nuforce amps with your Magnepans.

I will try an active pre.
