| Vacuum Tube Preamp for Solid State Power Amp Pairing :You have a good budget. A used Conrad Johnson preamp with a remote for volume would be another good choice. CJ Premier 14 or later have remote volume | |
| Vacuum Tube Preamp for Solid State Power Amp Pairing Check out a VTL TL-2.5. I have owned one for many years and sounds good with a solid state amp. | |
| Conrad Johnson MF2250A / MF2500A vs CJ MF2275SE / MF2550SE Thanks again for your detailed response. Sounds like I may like to upgrade to the later amp from my MF2250A.

| Conrad Johnson MF2250A / MF2500A vs CJ MF2275SE / MF2550SE Also, the resistors in the SE models are supposed to be superior & more costly VISHAY brand. But I wish I knew if it would be a change that was apparent. | |
| Any way to "improve" a Conrad Johnson MF 2500 I really enjoy my CJ MF2250A and it has no hum or noise. Has anyone compared this amp or the MF2500A to the later MF2275SE / MF2550SE? | |

| Harbeth 40.1 vs spendor sp100r2 I own Harbeth HL Compact 7 and Spendor S8e. I love both with my Conrad Johnson MF2250A solid-state amp and my VTL 70/70 & Manley Retro 100 tube amps. Both Harbeth and Spendor are fantastically natural sounding speakers. To reproduce unampl... | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? Marked improvement! Tweeter break-in, cable changes, adjusting tweeter and bass settings on rear of speakers have made the Revels much more enjoyable! | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? I have thought of Class D Bel Canto, Channel Island or other. I might add also that I have switched around IC and speaker cables that I have and there is an improvement. | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? The speakers had a brand new, just installed titanium tweeter. They are sounding much better. I think alot of the dry harshness that I was hearing was the tweeter not being broken in. | |
| Best amp for natural timbre of unamplified acoustic instruments & vocals w/ Revel F32? I might add that my Kef 104.2 have Morel tweeters. |
