Amp for Persona B Speakers

I have heard the Persona lineup with both the SimAudio 860 v1 and last week with the SimAudio 761 from the North Collection. The 761 was really great and one that I would like to get in the future for my slightly warm speaker.

However, I still felt the neutral 761 was still not ideal for the slightly bright Persona. I would have preferred some warmth to it. The amps that I have owned that would work magic with the Persona are:

• Krell Duo XD (the 300i integrated or the 175XD amp)
• CODA CSiB integrated | CODA #8 amp | CODA #16 amp
• Parasound A21+ amp (lowest cost)

The KRELL 175XD and the CODA #16 are the 2 best amps I have had for the Persona. The KRELL is warmer and smoother. Though I have sold all the amps on this list except the CODA #16 (do not plan to sell this one).

I'm using the Luminous Audio Technology Archimedes Monos with my Paradigm Persona 3F's.  Fantastic combination.  I believe they're running at $9,000/pr.  May be worth looking into for the B's.

The Archimedes replaced my Parasound A21+, which sounded quite good, but really everything improved with the Archimedes quite a bit.  (was able to home demo prior to purchase.)

looks like a repeat from another thread...missed that.

That’s a great amp — Is it just too warm sounding for you?
