Amp for Gallo Ref 3.1 and Modwright swl 9.0se?


Speakers: Anthony Gallo Reference 3.1
Preamp: Modwright swl 9.0se

Budget for amp: Under $1500

Source: CD & Ipod (DAC coming soon)

Music: jazz, 60's psychedelic, drone, metal, hip-hop, ambient and electronic played quiet and loud

I'm very curious about class D, but ultimately want the best pairing. I understand the gallo 3.1's need heavy current.

Thanks.

I had a Wyred 4 Sound ST-1000 500WPC amp with my 3.1's and it was way more than needed, I think the 250 would be plenty of power for them. The sound was excellent and the price fits your budget. I am currently running a Clayton 50WPC Class A amp which gives me everything I need and have heard them sound glorious with a 20 WPC 300B but your going to need some juice to play the music you like loud.

I have not heard the Modwright/Wyred 4 Sound combination. My preamp was a Cary98SLP.

If you are patient the Wyred 4 Sound amps are coming up used pretty regularly now. I paid $1,500.00 for my ST-1000.
