211 tube integrated choice


Hi all,

I am about to setup a small system based on an integrated 211 tube with vinyl as the main source. Please give me your input on what are the options available for a 211 tube integrated amps?

Cheers,

Hi David12,

The retail for NAF 845 is 8.250 euros brand new. I will keep my eyes on the Mastersound, as cosmetically they are more pleasing to my taste, hopefully it does sound as good as.

Here in the equator, the current is at 220v mate, I do prefer a 220v unit, rather than have to convert it. Sorry to hear about your incident mate, but given that you have been living with the Solista for 4 years it must has been serving you good mate. By the way what speakers are you running the Solista with?

Cheers,

At the moment I am using Acoustic Zen adagios and even at 89db, the 22watt Solista drives them easily. I have my eyes on the small outfit Ridge Street Audio Sasons, a 2 way standmount made of granite! Their cables are great and the speakers really look very interesting.

Hi David12

I have been googling and reading about the Sason it looked beautiful indeed, kinda like a smaller avalon. Have you take a listen to it?
Meanwhile MasterSound and NAF is high on my list for the integrateds, I really hope I can have a chance to listen to them soon.
However some folks here mentioned to me that some DIY integrated SET might also be an option for me. Have you had any experience using DIY's?

No experience with DIY, but there are some excellent kits around. I live in the UK, so listening will envolve a long trip, hopefully to RMAF. I am chatting with Robert and Steve at Ridge Street
Hi David12,

I live in Jakarta, Indonesia. I just love London, had a great time every time I visit there. What you mean by RMAF? and who is Robert and Steve at Ridge Street if you don't mind me asking?
