I have to make a decision about whether to buy an Accuphase e470 or a McIntosh MA8000. I don’t have an opportunity to listen to them. Which amp would be the best match for Klipsh Cornwall speakers?
FWIW: I used to sell Klipsch at retail many years ago and I agree with those who said neither amp. If you really want those Cornwalls to shine like they never did before, put a low powered SET amp on them.
Cornwalls don’t need anything near that kind of power. In fact, just the opposite it true. If you really want to make them really sing like you never heard before, try a low powered SET amp on them like a 2A3, 45, or 300B amp or a Derek Sanderson Fleawatt and watch out!
