100W+ solid-state amps known for beautiful mids Can I ask what pre amp you are using ?I have been using a Supratek Cabernet pre with a Belles SA30 class A power amp rated at 50wmy speakers are 87db in sensitivity, but don’t go below 85db so easy to drive for my amp, and it can play much louder ... | |

Doge 7 tube DAC jjss49 - very intrigued by your findings, been looking at the Sonnet and Tubador, but also the Lab12 dac, was very close to order the Doge7 at one time. | |
More watts or better power ? First, your setup is not midfi !!!it is a quality small high-end system.Biggest change for you would probably be a better tube pre amp, or maybe check out more speakers in your room, your power amp is very good. | |
Does anyone out there own a Supratek Malbec or Mondeuse amp? I am in the same boat, but it doesn’t look likely that he will make any power amps in near future.Too busy with all the pre amp orders to finish. | |
Aric Audio's Motherlode II line-stage keep me up all last night What power amps do you guys use with the Moderlode II ? | |
Supratek Owners Thread Update on my Supratek Cabernet pre, it is packed down, ready to being shipped back to Mick for warranty repair. Hopefully I will have it back soon in full working order.Will keep you updated. | |

Supratek Owners Thread Thanks for the reply Johnny, interesting points you make, unbelievable the hum suddenly disappeared last weekend and has not come back yet, although I have not had time to listen since Sunday evening, I have not done anything to the system for at ... | |
Your tube preamp and ss amp thread Supratek Cabernet 300B/6SN7 output into Belles SA30 class A | |
Should Class A Amps be left on?? I don’t think there is any need to have a class A amp on permanently, after 15-30 min it should be 95% there sound vise, and after an hour I would not think it would get any better. | |
Supratek Owners Thread jaymark- do you hear any hum from the speakers or from the power supply from the Cabernet? | |
Supratek Owners Thread It is better, but still a bit high. Unfortunately I like the sound of the 6SN7 output better, but I have not done any tube rolling yet, so that might change. | |
Supratek Owners Thread By the way, would be interesting to know what power amps you have tried with pre’s from Supratek, I find that the output gain is very high and can be a problem for a lot of power amps, it is for my Belles SA30, although the sound is sublime, I am ... |
