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......

Thanks for the ideas I don't have room for monoblocks but was considering the VAC 200IQ but not sure if it would be much warmer sounding than the pass x260.8 and seems the 200IQ is frequent resold...
Look for a used Music Reference RM-200. Great sounding amp that is  built like a tank and sounds great.

You never said you were looking for warmer sound than the Pass.  We’re we just supposed to ESP that?
