SF Guarnier mememto, possible driving by power 300B SE
These Memento’s, to me still not for a low powered 300B set, into that impedance and phase angle in the bass

Sonus Faber Guarneri with SET amplifier -possible?
Hello,
is there any chance to drive new Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento with SET amplifier?
I think about something like Jadis SE300B.
It is 10 W per channel amplifier with two parallel 300B triodes at the output and oversized transformers.
It sound much more powerful than claimed 10 Watts.
I don’t like to listen very loud, don’t like to much of deep bass and have 2200 cu ft room (20’ x 15’).
The amp itself sound fabulous and I would like to get SF the best midrange possible.
Any ideas?

Sonus Faber Guarneri with SET amplifier -possible?Not if you want the best bass possible around 100hz. Because the SF’s have a 4ohm load combined with a -50 degree negative phase angle around that frequency, which the amp could see being as low as 2-3ohms. And with a SET is could sound a bit thin in this area. http://www.stereophile.com/images/archivesart/807SFGFIG1.jpg Cheers George |
