Mc 2301 amps


I am thinking of upgrading from 501s to MC 2301 amps

i haven't owned tube amps before and would like to know how much heat will the 2301 put out?   Will it be uncomfortable ?

also. Does any body know if they will be upgraded soon

thanks in advance

Yea I would put up with a little heat, but don't want to get baked out of the room.  Amps would be on amp stands with a lot of room around them.  I'm not able to find a dealer in Dallas with them in stock so I would be taking a chance but I have herd they sound good with the strads

thanks
@richardallred You won't notice the heat.  Even if you do, you won't care because of the state of audio bliss you will enter.  The C2300 with MC2301s will rock your world.  To make the most of the combo, I'd suggest you also consider upgrading your DV to the XX2 Mk II, Te Kaitora Rua or XV-1S.  The 2300 will create magic with any one of those and your SFs.  

Enjoy your happy listening!

Richard,

Your system is very much like mine and I just installed MC2301s with my C2300 to drive my Stradivari.    You will absolutely love be them on these speakers!!!!!  The amps have the control of a powerful SS Amp but deliver a sound stage and beautiful mids to die for.

As for heat, my temporary temperature gauge laid on top of the cage read 120F.   If you are in a sealed room, it will get warm.  But if you have any sort of ventilation A/C, you won't notice!   

Get them!
