@imintohifi have you tried the Rogue Atlas with your Altec's?

@bdp24 How would you compare the sound quality of an RM-9 MKII vs, RM-10 MKII? I've been enjoying my RM9 MKII for 6 years, but recently replaced Harbeth 40.2 speakers with significantly more efficient Altec Model 19's. The Altec's sound excellent with the RM9 MKII, but given their high efficiency, I've always wondered if replacing the RM-9 MKII with the RM-10 MKII with provide sonic benefit. I'm guessing no, but the thought persists. |
@dhcod I occasionally swap in an Elekit 8600R 300B SET amp. While it does sound nice with the Altec's, the bass is not as well defined compared to the RM9 MK2. I have Werner Jagusch (MassMutter) crossovers on order... so I'm waiting for those to come in before I decide to try another amp. I'll likely keep the RM9 MK2, but maybe fiddle with finding a backup. |
@larryi I have relatively efficient speakers (Altec Model 19's), but feel the large woofers still benefit from moderate to high powered tube amps. What 6L6 based amps do you recommend, assuming a min. of 40 wpc? |
