Amp for Tannoy DMT 15 II

No question in my mind having owned two pairs and compared other amps - The Perreaux 9000B is the best choice if you can find one.

There are two ways to go:

1. 100 or more wpc high-current solid state (Meitner MTR-101, Quad 909, OMC 500 or 800, any quality amp that doubles its output from 8 to 4 ohms)

2. 2A3 or 300B tube amp

Each approach has its promoters and critics.

A good recording studio would biamp and use up to 2000 wpc on the bass and 1000 wpc on the highs.

I prefer approach 1, the pro audio approach, but like I said, depends on your taste and your budget.

Basically, the DMT 15 will perform well with any quality amp: just remember, they won't "gild the lily": you'll hear just what your components deliver to the speakers' inputs.

Cheers,

Joel.

Get a small wattage SET amp, check out the 2a3 monoblocks from Wright Sound, I forget the modedl number. If your speakers really are 98db, don't go with high powered ss, go with low powered tubes. You'll thank me later!

pass aleph 3 or aleph 5
