| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Hi, Ecclectique. Thanks for youe respone. I do love C-J CAV50.(EL34) and the very nice price. But it doesnt' work well with ProAc2.5. Actually, i prefer CJ sound to cary sound. I don't know why. I got more bass from Cary SLI80, but feel missing so... | |

| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Gjrad Pass Lab alph 3 has only 30W/channel, you think it will drive 2.5 well? What type of music you mostly listen to?As Gunbei said, the problem I experienced now is the difficluty to let proAC/cary present the complex music (like symphonie). I d... | |
| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Hi,GunbeiCurrently, SLI-80 is doing well with small scale music: like solo cello, violine, string quartet. The sound is charm and muscial~~ (which is much better than my old CAV50at this point)however, for the large scale music, symphonie, opera, ... | |
| ProAC 2.5 users please share experience on amp Thanks all for the inputs. Hi, Dean, do you think SS + Tube Pre is a good match for proAC 2.5 ?? this option could mostly likly be done within my budget. But now, it seemd that everyone agree with that ARC is good match~~ ... Any more comments, di... | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 I end up with Cary SLI-80 Signature with NOS tubes upgraded. I used only Triode Mode (40W? 50W) instead of 80W at UL mode, which works very well in my medium size room(24x13x8). The sound is smooth and beautiful.. I could live with it happily for ... | |
| Cary SLI-80 vs Cary 300SEI Hi, Just intereted in how do you get the best out from SLI-80 by chossing the right tubes. I got mine today to drive ProAC2.5. (86db).(which is not so good with CAV50, although CAV50 is so good and I hesitated to replace it with SLI80.). so, if I ... | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 Jadis do have a great reputation. people notice that it is hardest to do the bias adjustment on jadis, however. The service is another problem. I will check it out with guy who are selling it to see how's going on. | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 my room size is 13x14 ...and openned to a dinner area.I am wondering if i could put some shelves (like LP shelves selling in IKEA) to seperate the room. C-J-11a may not have enough power if cary can not do so. and many other int amplifer (like VAC... | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 some other tube options I am considering other than C-J are:1) ARC Classic 60 + LS2B2) CARY SLI 80It seems that there are some people use these combinations.Please comments on these combination..Thanks. | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 Thanks Erikminer. But ProAC 2.5 is fair enough for me at this time. Now I am only on the way to seeking enough funding to get power to feed it. Now both 8200MKII and9200 ae avilable and there are about $600 difference.I am not sure if it is worth ... | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 Art. thanks. it seems that we have same taste. I reallywant to have spendor and proAC sound at my home.. but can not affford two sets of amplifier. I like the sound of C-J, it made me move from SS to tube no doubt. I may try 8200 MkII. But I am wo... | |
| integrated Tube C-J CAV50 for Proac 2.5 Thanks. Art. Now I need make decision among there choices:1) stick with ProAC2.5 and sell my CAV50 and Spendor sp2/2 to get ARC gears (VT100 + SP8 pre ?? I guess)2) keep CAV50 and upgrade spendor to sp1/2 or sp100. andsay good bye to my dreaming P... | |
