Gale 401's


Hi there,

I've had the good fortune on inheriting these speakers, though, without an amp.

My dad always said they need "power power power", but looking on other forums, people talk about sold state amps, which I know nothing about, and my dad sure didn't have one of those.

  • What's the difference between solid state and your run of the mill amp from Richersounds? 
  • Could a Cambridge Audio AXR85 power these enough to truly appreciate them?
  • or do I need to invest in something more specialist? 

Thanks,
C

Assume you are in the UK (Richer Sounds).

Some of the Creek and Roksan amplifier models, though not super high wattage, were very stable running into 4 ohm loads.

Probably other local brands as well, but guessing that the two mentioned should be readily available on the used market for a reasinable price.
