Has anyone heard the Joule Electra Stargates?


I saw the Stereophile story on them, they look interesting. I have Silverline Sonatas, they are fairly efficient so I don't need a whole lot of power. Opinions please, I am looking at these amps and would like any opinions before I take the plunge. Thanks!

Findoc, I would just call or write to Jud and ask him. I believe that the Joule/Merlin tandem, which have been shown together for years, included Cardas. I may be wrong, but I think Merlins are wired internally with Cardas, so that would make sense. But that logic doesn't necessarily apply to your Sonatas. I chatted with Jud when I sent him my LA-100mkIII to be upgraded and found him to be very approachable.

You might also ask Silverline what they recommend. Many speaker manufactures use specific cables when they "voice" their speakers.
