Coincident Eclipse vs Devore

I will soon be listening to the Devores, likely the Nines
because this dealer did not have the Silverbacks." The Devores may look good paper in that regard, but I've seen alot of tube amplifiers just never bring them to life." Just curious. What would be your guess for tube power that would get the most out of the Super 8's, Nines... This is obviously based alot on opinions, and personal preferences, as well as room size. I would tend to believe that dealers may exaggerate their opinions on this subject in general for many of their speaker lines. That said, the Devores are often paired with 40-80 watt range tube amps. Sometimes even lower powered ones from what I understand.

Jetrexpro, Just curious. I am also considering Nines BTW, but what was the source or sources. There is a big difference between a VDH Colibri, and a Koetsu. If it was CD, between Audio Aero and Esoteric. Jonathan commented "The Montrachet is the most full bodied and rich of all the Shhindo amps." Jonathan, would this also be true of the Corton that also uses El-34's, or is the Montrachet simply the most full bodied IYO. Thanks in advance.

Wing wong or Moon Mon. Alright sir, last call!

Wing Wong , forward. Moon mon, recessed. Thanks for the interpretation. I am sure others can help you out on this one. When I heard the Nines, I was really impressed with them. However, I would like to hear them with my amp before making any judgement. I found their tonality to accurate without being in your face. My guess would be with associated gear that is your cup of tea, these would bring out the best of those other components.
