$2500 Tube Amp Recommendations


Hello
I have a pair of Sonus Faber Concertos (Bookshelf) at 88 Sensitivity
Source is VPI Scout
Granite Audio 770FP (Tube PreAmp)
Vandersteen 2wq Sub

I am looking for a used Tube Amp and want the best bang for the buck.

I only listen to blues/jazz vinyl

Recommendations would be appreciated

Have you considered the The CARY CAD 120S Power Amplifier recently named ‘2008 Product of the Year’ from Electronic House magazine and a STEREOPHILE 2008 Class A tube amp.
This stereo power amplifier is rated at 60 watts per channel in triode mode and 120 watts per channel in ultralinear mode into an 8 ohm speaker load.
The output stage may be switched ‘on the fly’ from triode mode to ultralinear mode by using a front panel selector button. The power supply features 1,120 micro farads of capacitance for ample reserves in demanding usages.
CARY is a great company and has a great customer service department and I'm sure they will be happy to answer any questions you have. While the retail is $5,500, there are some great deals right now on Audiogon withinn your range.
