Valencia, Thanks for the references. I was also considering their new AE-25 Super ... 25W in push-pull configuration. Will see if I can get demo or trial. ProAcs are an easy load, my room is less than 2000 CF, and I listen to mostly jazz and acoustic, so the lower power might be fine.
Heard (of) Audio Electronics Supply?
Anyone heard, or heard of, AES? Website states subsidiary of Cary Audio. Offers some very reasonably priced tube amps and preamps, assembled or in kit form. Thinking of a foray into tubes, but not ready for the sticker on Cary gear. Will be mating with ProAc Studio series speakers. Any comments?
