Thank you for posting the video. I found the discussion of the EMT preamp particularly interesting. I would bet it is a very nice sounding system given the DeVore speakers and a very nice complement of gear. This past weekend I did get to hear the Devore/Komoro 300B amp that was shown as the amp that he is currently using in the video. To me, it sounded decent--open, clear and nicely extended, but a touch lacking in "body" or "weight." I heard them running some fairly high efficiency speakers. This assessment was in comparison with a pushpull 6l6 amp designed as a clone of a Western Electric 124.
Loudspeaker designer/manufacturer John DeVore shows reviewer Ken Micallef his system.
And quite a system in it is!
At one point John tells Ken that he searched for the best amplifier of each "type" he could find, to use in the development of his various model loudspeakers. John explains in great detail how his speakers interact with different types of amplifiers.
Amongst the rare, unique, rather expensive, and/or otherwise unusual amps he chose, two more common and affordable models stick out: The Parasound A21, and for medium-power push/pull tube amps the Music Reference RM-10. John didn’t call it out by model number, but as he described it as a push/pull design using EL84 tubes it can only be the RM-10 (the only amp matching that description that Roger Modjeski ever marketed).
Modjeski marketed three push/pull amps: the first was the general purpose RM-9 (four EL34’s for 125w/ch)---a favorite of former Stereophile reviewer Dick Olsher, the second the RM-200 (a single pair of KT88’s for 125w/ch), designed to work unusually well with low impedance loudspeakers---Michael Fremer’s reference "affordable" tube amp for many years, and lastly the cute little RM-10 (a pair of EL84’s for 35w/ch). Modjeski said the sound of the RM-10 was his favorite of the three.
