Thanks for the inputs. Twopippis - I checked out your system - WOW. Regarding the Pass, is your comment in reference to the X series, the Alephs, or both? It's good to hear from other Hawk users. I really like these speakers, and have been surprised at the lack of mention of them anywhere.
Talon speakers and Spectron amps?
I am running a pair of Talon Audio Hawks with a Pass Aleph 3 amp and Wadia 830. All the components are great, but the Talons seem to want something a bit fatter sounding than the Wadia. I've been considering the usual suspects, Electrocompaniet, Audiomeca, Resolution,GNSC, etc, but would also like to upgrade my amplifier (Atma-sphere springs to mind). Couple this with the need for a pre-amp for some of the top choices, concern over new formats, and I'm stuck in indecision. I recently read a bit about the Spectron Musician amplifiers, and am wondering if one of these with it's digital direct input might solve everything. How would people charactrerize their sound? Are they at all on the warm side? Anyone know if they're a good match for Talon speakers?
Is anyone else out there using the Talon Hawks? If so, what are you using with them?
