Gallo reference 3.1 Amp + Pre? LINN MAJIK DS


Hi,

I'm a newbie in the hi-fi world. However, having aquired a pair of used Gallo's and a Linn Majik DS, I need to ask what is the best system match for these components?

I'm looking for a sound that is not too clinical or precise, but not too warm or mushy. The DS is supposed to be rather detailed, so they say. I would say I would like a sound on the neutral to slightly warm side while presevering detail without harshness.

I'm open to monoblocs, tubes, etc.. whatever is the best comination. I listen to electronic (ambient, trance, chill, goa), Indie and experimental/post rock, classical (piano concertos mainly), world music, symphonic/folk rock.

I'm confused about how to match the Linn. Do I need to go Linn pre and amp to make the DS shine, or other will manufacturers work better? I.e, tube amps?

Systems I've heard from those who own Gallos:

Nuforce monos, Spectron, Butler or Modwright tube pres.
Bell Canto or McIntosh.

Thanks for your help
Alan

Hi,

Not sure you still get the linn DS..
I am using the majik with an Almaro 318B and it sounds amaizing!
I currently have a pair of Klipsch chorus and the combination is awesome.

All the best
Dom
