trying to understand about reference amplifiers - differences between each other and tech info

[alto]

Hi

i have Vitus SM-101
and Pass 350.5

i bought them because i red reviews , not because i understand anything about amps

what are the top 5 amps today? (Solid state)
what is the Pro and Con of each?
every amp have own Sonic or Sound signature or some are 100% "unflavored"?

tech terms i'm not really understand:
microFarad storage
high current amps with over 1000VA power supply
negative feedback

thanks

What you have must be pretty good. I you want to go one better then it is probably Soulution you need to consider.

Other brands at a more reasonable price to consider would be:

Analogue Domain

Grandinote

Jeff Rowland

SST

Mola Mola

Audionet

Boenicke

right,

Audionet Max, very good reviews and similar sonic as Soulution

CH also consider as one of the best.

people say Vitus sound best with Vitus
i will look for Vitus Pre
sell the gear i'm not using.

then i'm thinking about Magico S5 mk2
or Rockport Avior for great bass
i need to listen first.

If you are not getting bass with focal you won't get with these speakers. There might be a room bass issue

I doubt that the preamp is the issue with bass although getting the matching preamp for your amp may give you more synergy. As above, could be a room issue. Have you tried re-positioning your speakers?

i found Vitus RD-100 (as Mr Hans Vitus advice me)
arrived today

plug it to the Vitus amps
unplugged the Luxman DA-06
plug the RD-100 to the computer

played Christine and the Queens - 01. Paradis perdus

i can't believe i didn't did it long time ago !
i'm so stupid
people say Vitus must plug with Vitus and couldn't believe it's a big different
or something wrong with Pass XP-10 , i really don't understand that.

so much bass now !!!
sound like i have two sub-woofers
even in low volume , more details

with SL-101 / SL-102 it will be even better
just not sure what DAC to use.

those Vitus SM-101 have so much power / grip !!
even in Class A

Wow!
