I have black ice f35 which is their top intersgrated 60 watts with el 34s. Change the stock power tubes with Gold Lions. They are very good sounding tubes in these amps. With the new Fosgate circuitry these amps have the bass control of solid state, meaning tight and punchy. My other amp is a Pass intergated amp. Switching to my Black Ice, there is no drop off in listening pleasure.
Tube Amp for Klipsch Forte IV's? Black Ice F-22 or Willsenton R8 with upgraded tubes?
I can get the Black Ice for around 2700.00 CAD and the Willsenton for 2000.00 CAD
The Willsenton would include three upgraded Psvane pre amp tubes (the other two are stock) and four upgraded powertubes, Psvane PH's
F22 shows 50w per channel, Wilsenton 40w ultra liner and 25w triode
I may also pair the amp with a Sonus Faber Lumina V also which is 50w recommended min
thanks in advance for any input
