| Sonus Faber w/ Sonic Frontiers Power 1 - Impedance 4-Ohm taps and not too loud.SF goes down to <3Ohms so you will eventually damage your tubes anywhay on higher volume levels.Think of changing this amp for Manley(if you want to stick with tube gear) or add SS amp for bass(if you have bi-wired SF). | |
