The big question ia how much money can you spend on an
Inexpensive Tube Integrated Amp (Hybrid) To Use With Coincident Speakers
I’m a bit of a neophyte with digital applications, so please be patient with me. I have 15 year old very sensitive Coincident Tower Speakers. We have moved into a small house, and I want to set up a section of the “great room,” as they call it, for my music listening, away from the TV. Israel Blum, the creator of Coincident sells very expensive tube amps which, as a retired teacher, I cannot afford. What I am looking for is a decent tube integrated amp, or small SS integrated amp, with low wattage and warmth, to drive my Cooincidents, which are very sensitive speakers. However, I do not use records or CDs, and stream music from Spotify. Is there an integrated amp that would meet my needs? Would I need a DAC, which I truly have no understanding of? Monoprice makes an integrated, hybrid, tube amp, but I heard it hums like crazy and has a myriad of problems. Do any of you have suggestions? Thanks much.

Musical Paradise has a hybrid integrated that sounds right up your alley. http://www.musicalparadise.ca/store/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=75 This company has rave reviews for it's MP-301k Tube integrated. I wrote to Garry asking for a recommendation to drive Klipsch Chorus 1's. (That deal fell through). He recommended the 303. It includes a DAC - so you could connect your iPad or laptop and you're good to go...for $238 shipped! |
