| OTL Amps and ProAc Speakers I have owned/own a couple OTL amps, Atma-sphere M60,s and I currently own the Tenor's and I also own a pair of the 1sc's. The OTL's are a fine match. The proac has a fairly flat impedence curve and the OTL's like this. While I don't have specific ... | |
| Art Audio amp/Sonic frontiers 2SE amp I would also vote for the Art Audio over the SF. I also admire the Atma Sphere. I use OTL's in my system (tenor) and they are special. I have heard nothing but good things about the Diavlo and Jota. | |
| Looking for speakers to go with Graaf OTL-20 amp - In addition to what others have recommended, Von Schweikert is coming out with a new speaker called the DB-99. It is a down sized version of the DB-100 which is shown on their web-site. It looks quite interesting and his speakers are always well d... | |
| Quads or Maggies? I don't have as much experience with the Maggies but the original Quad 57 (if in the right condition and driven properly) is awfully hard to beat and a truly special treat if you have never experienced their magic. I have heard that the 988 may be... | |
| Suggestions to replace amp for Proac 1SCs I own the 1sc's and in my room 12x15x9h they sound great with Sun Audio 300B, 47lab Gain card, VTL tiny triode and. | |
| OTL amps on Dynamic Speakers I am driving Audio Physic Avanti III's (89db, benign 4ohm load) with the Tenor 75w OTL's and it is the best sound I have ever had. My room is 15x25x11h. Hope this gives you some reference. | |
| The Little Tube Amp That Could? I would second the VTL tiny triodes....really nice in the triode mode. | |
| Where to find info on Tenor amps Yes, there are 4 models currently...the 75wi which are 75watt integrated monoblocks, 75w's which are non integrated monos, 15wi's and 15w's(you get the point).These are the best amps I have heard and owned. | |
| Tenor Audio - Anyone hear them? I own a pair of the 75wi's and you should do whatever you can to audition a pair. I have them running with a pair of the Audio Physic Avanti III's. | |
| Avalon Eidolon for nearfield listening? I will put in a strong plug for the Audio Physic Avanti III's. I have owned the Kharma's but prefer the AP's. They do very well in a nearfield set-up and will give you everything back you give them. I mistakenly thought I had their performance max... | |
| Best DAC to match CEC drive model TL 1 I would encourage you to look into the Audio Logic 2400. It has a tube output stage and is one of the finest dac's on the market. Jerry Ozment the designer is very helpful and service oriented. | |
| Good Reasonably Priced Seperate Phono Stage?? I would look at an EAR 834p with some upgaded tubes. | |
| Which DAC? Levinson, Theta, Sonic Frontiers It's not on your list but look into an audiologic 2400...very good dac. | |
| New Audio Physic Avanti 3's versus previous Talon Khorus I've lived with the Avanti III's for several months now and think they are an exceptional speaker that anyone in this price range should seriously consider. I have heard the Talons and have been disappointed but feel this may have more to do with ... | |
| Which integrated amp for Talon Khorus? I agree that you may not be able to do better than the Tenor 75wi OTL. |
