I’m narrowing down my search for a new amplifier to the Plinius A-150 in mono which should be an huge improvement based on my current Audio Research Ref 150SE. I love the sweet but neutral tube sound of the ARC 150SE but I want more tonal density and attack to flushed out in the mid-range.
There is very little press or real owners that have commented regarding Plinius amps and the only professional reviews places them closer to Gryphon but at a lower price point. With a smaller toroidal and way less capacitance that I can only image would reduce some of the immediacy and attack/slam but I’m not a bass head so that would not bother me at all, the Plinius in full class A would be in my short list of amps.
Does anyone have the A-150 or mod'ed SA-103 that they can provide real world comments on in either stereo or mono configuration?
