tube amp will drive von schweikert VR4-jr?

I've tried the VR4jrs with Brystons and Aleph 0s. Just excellent really. Again it is a matter of taste in what type of "sounding" amp to use. In a seperate set-up, we've tried (and are currently using) a Manley Stingray (35 watts) to drive the 4jrs and they are driving them fine. Room size is around 4m x 5m. Volume levels used were reasonable, no head banging levels.

If you're using a tube amp, just make sure you have enough lead shot in the 4jrs to dampen cabinet resonances. This likewise helps in making it easier to drive as it lessens impedance dips.

Robm321,

I think the BATs do have that option. Best to use the 4 ohm option as the 4jrs are a nominal 6 ohms. Just a correction the m/t module is 8 ohms and the base module is 4 ohms.

My partner is using a VK75 with his 4srs and they are just amazing. He is currently moving from an all Mark Levinson system to a BAT system. He however finds the VK75 euphonic for his taste so he's saving up for the VK75se, which is said to be more neutral. They drive the SRs effortlessly though. Although not as quick and punchy as the MLs, the base is still fast and the extension is there. I find no fault in the BATs. Honestly, I've been thinking of the VK55 for my 4jrs in case my DB99 falls though.
