Tube Amp for Devore O/96
Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with the Jadis DA50S amplifier or the Conrad Johnson 62SE or 120SE, or have thoughts on these two amplifier manufacturers generally. I'm wondering particularly how these amps compare and if any of them would be an especially good match for Devore Fidelity O/96 speakers as I move from solid state to tube.
@atmasphere Thanks so much! I'm pretty sure I'm set on tubes for the O/96s. According to Devore, the speaker was specifically designed for low-powered tube amplifiers, so tubes seem to me the best approach to get the most out of my system with these speakers. I'm fairly new to this hobby so I'm still figuring things out, but are there reasons to consider solid-state over tubes for these speakers? Also, do you have any particular triode amps that are push-pull you'd recommend?

@carlsbad Thanks! I forgot to add that my listening room is a very large open space,; with high ceilings and no walls, so I will need a decent bit of power. With that in mind, would the Jadis still be more amp than I need for my efficient speakers? |
@bonzo75 Thanks! I'll definitely check out the NAF2A3, Airtight 300b, and Mastersound 845! Did you have a preference between the NAF2A3 and the Airtight 300b for the O/96 performance? |
@atmasphere Ralph I’m surprised you didn’t explicitly support my mention of your S-30. I know the 0/96 may dip slightly below 8ohms in a few frequencies, but might you have any opinion on how the S-30 might perform with the O/96? |
@blisshifi I appreciate the mention bit am also careful about the forum rules. I think the M-60s a better match in most rooms just because of the power; in this particular case @flipturn mentioned he has a larger room so the power will be appreciated. |
