| Tube preamp: Cary SLP-03 vs Schiit Freya+ @laimac, Improvements in my system via Freya + preamp with Ken-Rad tubes: The bass and lower midrange was better defined and clearer more like the sound at a live event. The highs had a tad more smoothness and sparkle above 10 Khz. Imaging depth ... | |
| Tube preamp: Cary SLP-03 vs Schiit Freya+ @laimac, The Schiit Freya+ stereo preamplifier is without doubt an excellent performer, It's three preamps in one. I use it with my solid state amps and tube amp and it sounds great with stock tubes. My speaker's efficiency is 2.7 %. In my system... | |

| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... @alaindexe, Sorry for the confusion: Ok, Efficiency and sensitivity are not the same. My speakers are JBL 4435 monitors and have a sensitivity of 96 dB SPL @ 1 watt @ 1 meter @ 8 Ohm their efficiency is 2.7%. See the JBL manual below specificati... | |

| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... @alaindexe, Just to be clear: All class AB solid state amplifiers run in class A to a point. Case in point the Schiit Ragnarok 2 runs class A for one watt and class B for 59 watts @ 8 Ohm. In my system the Ragnarok 2 amp generates less heat then ... | |
