Mastersound evolution 845 vs. Jadis da88s vs auris forte 150


Hey folks. I'm trying to finally get my amplification sorted.

 

My speakers are 90db (conservative) and 4ohm dipping to 2.7. and yes, I've determined I want tubes anyway. 

Ive determined that my system is fully capable of producing beautiful textured holographic vocals, and producing impactful bass and dynamics. What I haven't been able to get is both at the same time.

So far I've tried dartzeel, vtl, Vinnie Rossi, blue circle and a few others.

I feel my best bet is the sweetest midrange amp I can get with enough power to have some spam. My music mostly isn't bass heavy. Indie rock, indie country, some proto punk and post punk with some hip hop. Obviously some bass in there...

I can't listen to these before buying and I'm tired of buying and selling, but willing to take a chance.

I have a preamp I like but I'm also like integrated.

 

Has anyone heard two or all of these and could make a comparison as to the sound signature? I understand the basics and have read all the reviews I can find but personal input is often better.

Mastersound 845 Evo 50wpc class A

Jadis da88s 60wpc class A

Auris Forte 150 100wpc class a/b???

 

I like kt150 tubes and I feel the auris would have the energy and slam over the others, but I might not get the midrange magic that I really need. This has been the challenge.

What did you end up getting? I got the Mastersound 845 Evo and I love it. Though it doesn't push my hard to drive speakers the way SS does 

I'm getting my brand new Jadis DA88S this weekend and my cabling is Cardas Clear Beyond SCs and ICs, speakers are Thiel CS 3.7s.

Will let you know how it sounds.
