Recommendation Request for Tube Power Amplifier
The Rogue Stereo 100 amp would do the job perfectly with 100 wpc and the choice of triode or ultralinear mode. I have a  Rogue Stereo 90 in which I am currently using Tung Sol KT120 tubes (very hard to get at present), the same as the Stereo100, a... 
What's Up?
Not unusual on this forum to get a multitude of answers to questions never posed.  
Simple question, probably stupid
Thank you to all those who read, understood and responded to my simple question and to all those who chose to answer a completely different question ie do tubes need to be burnt in? With regard to that latter issue, as it has been raised, I might ... 
Amplifier considerations, PrmaLuna EVO 400 versus ARC Reference 160 S. Is ARC worth it?
18HZ - 30KHZ frequency response.  Wow what speakers are they?  
Aurender Conductor app reliability and user experience
My experience with the conductor app and Aurender support has been nothing short of disastrous. Firstly when integrating with Qobuz I lost about 300 albums that were in my Quobuz library and had to spend many hours manually trying to reload the mi... 
Should I steer clear of class D amps
I bought a ClassD amp mainly because I wanted an amp I could lift. I was dubious at first but took the plunge and got a Nord Purifi dual mono Class D with Spargo op amps putting out 250wpc. I got a huge surprise when it had burned in for about 100... 
Is D-Sonics audio still in business
I have a Nord Purifi dual mono Class D amp which I rate as excellent value and SQ. Mine cost under Aust$3000 including shipping from the UK to Australia, customs duty etc. They also do cheaper single end Purifi amps and Hypex amps as well as more ... 
Looking for an Amp Replacement
I had Shahinian Obelisk speakers driven by an ME850 250wpc amp and the sound was thin and generally awful. I blamed the speakers and sold them. Later I heard the same speakers demonstrated with a 100wpc McCormack amp I think and the sound was sens... 
Amp question with size constraints
Second Class D either Purifi or GAN. I have a Nord Purifi and it completely knocked my socks off after many years of tube and SS gigantuan amps.  
Your audiophile chair
Like mwatsme I have an Eames replica and love it.  
Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component?
It's all relative and depends on what you can afford and how important audio quality and music is to you. Your budget is a bit below what I would pay but there are people on this forum who can afford and do pay much more than I can afford.  
Aurender N10 connection with the network
I had similar connectivity problems solved by deleting the app and then downloading it again. Please don't ask why it worked as I haven't a clue. But that was only the start of my problems with the Conductor app on which I am in regular contact wi... 
Music Server Advice
@commumique1  I agree with you re the Aurender app but beware the Auralic app is as bad if not worse.  
Bang for the buck

Another "Best" amplifier Question.
can vouch for Nord Audio class D purifi out of the UK but Emotiva is good value if not the last word in SQ.
