Which mono power amp would you choose and why?


In the next month I'm looking to get some feedback on which of these 2 mono power amps to buy, the Musical Fidelity m8-700m mono block power amplifier, or the Cary SA-500.1 ES  mono block power amplifier. I'm looking to spend between 7k and 9k for the pair. They will be hooked up to my new Benchmark LA4 line amplifier.

Google my company vujadeaudio more expensive but all point-to-point with better parts and better sound then the ones you are looking at.  Pure Class A tubes.  Built to last forever.

 

 

@alucard19 - not sure what power you are looking for but watts mean nothing.  I just finished upgrading a Spectral power amp.  To me it was nothing special and rather boring in stock form.  Once upgrading the amplifier, it was another level that I would even consider buying one and I am a tube guy.  In my 20 + years of modifying gear, the upgrades sonically take components to a entire different level that the stock products offer.  You may want to consider something like that and have it upgraded.  Happy Listening.
