So I have a vitus ri-100 and an rs-100, a PS bhk 250, a Hegel 160, and an accuphase e-470, driving TAD cr-1s, TAD evolution ones, Sonus Faber cremona ms, Sonus Faber luitos, and Vienna acoustic Mozart’s. Bottom line is i can mix up the amps with the speakers and get very different results in terms of sound, speed and listenability. I also have had a pass int 150, pass int 60, plinius, ARC reference 110, ARC ref 75SE and a Hegel 300. The real answer is to try out different amps with you magicos in your room with YOUR ears and see what YOU like. That’s all that matters. Audio is like art. Somethings that some treasure are abhored by others. The one thing i find is the more that some spend, the more rabid they become in convincing everyone their choice is the best. But let your ears decide. BTW right now I’ve falling in love with the PS BHK. Rolled it with some amperex 6922 tubes. Is kicking ass with my TAD CR-1s
Integrated Amp to match with Magico A3
Have just ordered a pair of Magico A3, and looking for integrated amplifier to pair with it. As I heard once which had a very disappointing result to pair with Gryphon 300 in a local Hifi show in Hong Kong. Reallly looking for recommendations on matching amplifier. Planned to get a Marantz PM-10, but worried that the single box may not be powerful enough to push the A3. On the other side, some said Hegel H360 with 4000+ damping factor may suit even better.
thank you in advance
