I agree with georgehifi. The Klipsch Forte were my first really good speakers. I was new to the hobby and poor in the late 80's and used them with an SS NAD integrated amp. Not a bad combination but they could get tinny and glare with those early CD's. Looking back, the Jolida JD-1000a integrated amp with it's EL-34 tubes I use in a 2nd system would have been a perfect match. The EL-34's have a nice high frequency roll off, a warm detailed mid range and plenty of bass. Good Luck.
Klipsch Forte IIs, which amp?
I have a pair of Klipsch Forte IIs that I need an amp for. The preamp is a Parasound Zpre3. I was using a Parasound A23 but have moved that into a different room. The A23 sounded great, should I go for another or look into something else in the sub $1k range new/used? I’ve been eyeballing an older McIntosh MC7100 too.
Thanks for any input.
