ICE Amps for classical music?


I listen to classical orchestral music at heavy volume. I detest reproduced music for always sounding more or less electronic and not acoustic. Real music is beautiful in a way reproduced music--so far at least-- never is. I have become curious about Wyred4sound amps because of low price and high watts. I am wondering if any of you "mostly classical" listeners have heard these amps and feel they do no more damage to music than amps which are NOT ICE amps. I am using a Plinius SA100 now and have used a VAC 100/100,
a Bedini Classic 100/100, a Music Reference RM-9, and other tube and solid state amps. They all had their pluses and minuses, of course, but for least electronic, clearly the Bedini was the winner. So what about ICE amps?

Another attempted witicism from one of the most unenlightened posting here.

Do you know Bartokfan?
The choice for an NOS or upsampling D/A Converter is purely subjective and a personal choice contrary to a previous post which is erroneous and disingenuous as well.

Some folks prefer NOS while others prefer upsampling; it's vanilla or chocolate. Neither is right or wrong.

The amplifier with regards to your choice of D/A Converters is, of course, irrelevant.

Also incorrect is the "whispiest insulated speaker cable" advice. Choose the speaker cable that suits your ears and system. It's that simple.
No motive, no hidden agenda, and certainly no dealerspeak so put that away. Do you see any advertisting rx8girl?

My point is Muralman's ideas work for him but they are not a universally accepted truth. Personal preferences are the cornerstone of our hobby.

Anybody with audio experience has learned this basic premise.

Muralman will eventually get it once he takes the blinders off.
