| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Food for thought and thanks for the response Atmasphere. Vu's tube preferences for the K's were 300B's and 6L6's. That conversation and your comments bring something like the Canary M-90 to mind. Anyone had experience with that one? -Scott | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe I just got off the phone with Vu. Whoever recommended that thank you. A most informative conversation. Keep in mind this thread started with me looking for better punch in the midrange. What I failed to mention was that I've been running this rig ... | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Hi Atmasphere, Thank you for your comments. Just to be clear since the K's are in a larger room (approx 30 x 12) you would prefer a push pull configuration. Correct? -Scott | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thank you David. I'll look into that. -Scott | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks again for the responses Larry. Based on what I'm looking for, your comments only reinforce the gameplan to go with a pair of Empress' when circumstances allow me to come into possession. Take Care, -Scott | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe If you had to choose between a push-pull EL 84 at say 20W or an SET 2A3 say at 8W to push the K's what would you prefer? | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks Larry, I'm also intrigued the Level 4 EL 84 kit that's available. Seem's that might be a good match for the K's in a 30x12 room. I listen primarily 8-10 feet away with proper toe in. -Scott | |
| First tube preamp recommendations (under $5k) Given your price point I'll echo the Cary SLP-98 | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks Larry. My problem regarding OTO is that I have a Backert Labs preamp which I absolutely love and will not give up. I install the new cables when they arrive (see earlier post) and save up for a few years. I think I'll be on the lookout for ... | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks Pesky. I've soldered before and installed a new audio system in the wife's '91 Miata two summers ago. So something to definitely consider. -Scott | |
| Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else I first wanted to thank oldhvymec4 for his comments on this post. I found those to be thoughtful and informative. I am the current owner of an XA 30.8. They are pushing a pair of Audio Note K's and a REL T-7. Although I am exploring tube options I... | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Here's a question in regards to markhh2's comment: If the Oto is the bomb (which I do not disagree with. I've heard the same comment from another source) for matching with K's, would Manley Mahi's be worthy of consideration? Both have the same pow... | |
| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe I will do that. Thanks. Is that a nick name? | |

| Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thank you all for these helpful responses. The attack will be incremental. I've ordered AN Lexus speaker cable (my setup requires 3M runs), and a single 2M length of AN-Vx interconnect between transport and DAC. I use the transport quite a bit. We... |
