Amps aren't hard on AGs thankfully. Just has to be tubed with body. I'd love to hear Airtight 211s on them, but I know a guy with Mezzos that has tried SET and prefers an ARC 75SE. Go figure?

Same guy sold an MBL/Vac Statement system for them and hasn't looked back. Rarely posts on forums anymore lol

Wow, that's awesome.

I bet the new Ref the 160M in triode mode could be great.

Whatever the ARC is that Mike has on his UNOs at his shop is tremendous.

i can’t say for sure that I prefer it to the sweetness of the 300b midrange on these. But my. Amazing match. Really made an impression on me.

i love love love my Uno XD. duos would be even better. I don’t know if they are appropriate for my space.

love AG. Love.

to me, the comments about bass integration, harshness, etc are complete hogwash. I am totally captivated by my sound now in a way I never was before.
 
Thank you Justin. Your excitement started my research into AG a while ago. I see how happy you are with your Unos. I am looking forward to the same.
 
Man Joe, I really hope you take the plunge - super excited for you to have the opportunity.

The one thing I notice about AG owners is they tend to get off the merry-go-round.
 
Thank you Keith. I’m going to do it. What the heck. The color combo in the first post is what I want. Should be 3-4 weeks.

What a mistake. AG’s are shouty, harsh, bass integration is a hot mess... and they are impossible to drive.

But to each his own.

LMAO. I know you’re kidding or you’ve been reading too much on other forums from guys who have never heard them (or much else for that matter). LOL.

Hey Justin, how are those Takatsuki tubes breaking in in your Triode amps? Still loving them?

I love them. Really really good. My favorite match so far of the bunch I have tried.

Will you soundproof my basement in the process?
