......correct me if I am wrong, but I do recall Dave Wilson showing as well as owning his speakers with Nagra equipment. It would seem to me based on the sonic characteristics of those two companies it just might be the match you are looking for.
Wilson Sasha W/P amplifier pairing
I acquired a pair of Wilson Sasha W/P speakers this year. They’re Series 1 Sasha’s. Now trying to find great mono blocks to power them. My other system has Harbeth Speakers and a Pass Labs amp, I love the combo and can listen for hours without fatigue. I’d really prefer something warm and non fatiguing for the Sasha’s.
Amps I’ve tried so far:
Pass Labs X350 - too bright and forward, etched vocals, not a lot of sparkle but plenty of authority
Pass Labs INT-30A - much better all around than the X350 but still too bright and forward. Not nearly enough power for Sasha. End result is too cold and thin
Bob Latino ST-120 - this is a $1200 kit tube amp I built. 60WPC. This amp was surprisingly kind of magical with Sasha. Never fatiguing and full bodied. Unfortunately it went up in smoke because I can’t solder.
Mono blocks I’m considering:
Audio Research Ref 160M
Lamm 1.2 Reference
Pass Labs XA100.8
Preamp is a PrimaLuna EVO 400. Rega RP3 with Exact cart. Denafrips Ares II DAC streaming Roon via MicroRendu. Any advice welcome.
