Amp or blocks for Total Eclipse


Have a pair of ex demo TE’s on trial – having trouble driving them.
Tried a Try 335? Valve integrated – grainy and veiled
Xindak mono blocks – bass light
Bada 380? 20 anniversaries – no detail
As usual a bit money challenged – your thoughts?

Take a look at some of the hybrid amps. that'll keep one foot in each camp... tubes & SS.

I find the Dodd MK III 120wpc mono blocks pretty nice amps. They drive my more difficult imp than your's, speaker pretty well.... being ever mindful their bass isn't that of comparable SS amps... but then there's that always, huh?

I think I've heard another owner of TE uses D amps.... Rowland?

Another great source said he liked what he heard from the newest Odyssey monos too.

Good luck.
I drive my Super Eclipse lll's with Nuforce 9 SEV3. It really
lights them up.
The Total Eclipse is easy to drive. We can drive them with our smallest amp, but most of our customers usually use either our M-60 or MA-1 for them. The speaker makes good bass down into the lower 20s and we found it easy to set up. They are designed with tube amplifiers in mind, if you want everything they have to offer get an amp with at least 60 watts/channel.
