You say you want a "rich, warm sound". I replaced a pair of Tannoy Turnberry SE that I had for 12 years and used with many amplifiers/preamplifiers/integrateds with a pair of Focal Kanta 2. Most recent amplification was/is Benchmark HPA4/AHB2, with both Tannoy and Focal. The sound with the Tannoys was certainly warmer, but I'm a lot happier with the Focal sound. Much clearer, much more detailed. More bass (as opposed to "warmth", maybe). In my room, anyway, the Focals have it all over the Tannoys. What am I saying, exactly? I guess partly that you will definitely get richer and warmer sound with the Tannoys. But it sounds much more like real music here with the Focal speakers. Listening to the Scottish Chamber Orchestra right now with them. Beautiful.
Prima Luna Vs Accupahse
I am looking to get out of my Arcam SA20 and upgrade soon. I have the opportunity to get a good deal on both a used Prima Luna Evo300 Hybrid and used Accuphase E-280. My main speakers for now are the Focal Aria 936K2 but plan on getting Tannoy’s later. Which one would yall say is the better amp. Thank yoi!
