| What is Good Value Starter Amp in the 100-200wpc Have a look at Odyssey,Pass,and Belles for solid state;want to try tubes??? | |
| Suggestions for a preamp with HT Passthrough If you can find one a PSE HL-1 would work;I enjoy mine driving audio valve challanger 180 mono's;it has bypass, rca, balanced outs, and remote control as well;I have not seen any in a while though. | |

| Tube amps under 1,800 for gallo 3.1's maybe a hybrid amp would work for you like monarchy audio SE160 mono's. | |
| Joule Electra or Wolcott Tube Amps, or...? Outlier; I think since the Joule is in the running for you then you need to take Ralph's comment on his MA2 as well and see if you can hear amps also. | |
| Joule Electra or Wolcott Tube Amps, or...? Have you considered VTL,Manley,Audio Valve, or maybe even a Hybrid like the Moscode 401-HR?Maybe give the speaker manufacturer a call and get their opinions as well. |
