Ralph at Atma-sphere is your man. Not only does his equipment sound wonderful but he also knows of a few tweaks on the older SLs that can improve the speaker. Whenever I have heard the SLs sound really good they have been driven by tubes. At one CES they were driven by some very expensive European SS amps and I think this sounded good but Bob Crump was talking so loud in the background I couldnt concentrate.
Soundlab A3s and thoughts.
Hi all. i’ve sold my Oranutans and my Brinkmann TT and was going to give it a rest for a while while i renovate an old house we just bought. but.....i’ve just agreed to buy a pair of Soundlab a3s from a local chap.
They sounded nice nice with his n-core digital amp and an ayon cd/pre. i don’t know what generation they are and I don’t intend to upgrade them. i wasn’t looking to buy another system but i’m a sucker for interesting hi-fi.
Anyway, i’m looking for second hand amp recommendations for these. i was thinking Red Dragon S500 but they seem to be missing in action on their web site. What do you guys think would work well and is cheap. (1-2k second hand). this system is kind of an excersize in putting a decent system together for 5k ish.
Also general thoughts about how to get the best from them, from those with experience.
oh ! just one last thing.... if anyone has an email-able user instructions for them they could send me that would be a tremendous help.
Thanks all, Wish me luck.
