Amp for Piega P-8 Ltd.s


I am looking to replace my Mark Levinson 383 for something with a little more authority on the P-8 LTD.s

Has anyone tried something more muscular, say Krell FPB series or Rowland?

I want something a bit more textured than the Levinson too. But for various reasons - none of them having to do absolutely with sound - I don't want to use tubes.

So something in solid state around or under $10,000

Many thanks - Michael

I have a pair of P5-ltds, which I tried with a krell kav 2250. The sound was in a word, poor. Soundstaging suffered most of all. Perhaps the only plus was the extremely authoritative bass response brought by the 2250.

I finally ended up purchasing an accuphase e407 integrated amplifier, which I would highly recommend. The combination is fantastic. Perhaps in your situation, accuphase separates would be appropriate.

I have also heard very good things about the piega-rowland combo...
