recommendation for stereo tube amplifier for Marten Bird 2 speakers other than EAR....


Hi,

I am looking for ideas for my new Marten Bird 2 speakers.  I am getting excellent results with Pass Labs X260.8 monoblocks but would like a stereo tube option too and looking for ideas other than EAR 890.  As the Marten is open and transparent but is 89db I would like something that has strong bass for a tube amp.  I would prefer stereo tube amp as it gets hot in socal......

At a show the Marten Jango’s driven by all Zesto/Cardas and their Eros 150W mono’s. From the few I’ve listend to Maten’s are in the real deal bunch IMO.

My history: two Marantz 8B’s, MFA D75 and the exceptionally cool running Carver Tube 180’s drive my 87dB, 3.6 ohm three ways since there introduction just fine from the 4 ohm tap with no problems. They also have a 2 ohm tap.

Lots to chose from, have fun.
