What type of amps do you use? Tube? Solid State? Both? Hybrid?

Vitus Class A power for me

 

[Audiophon]

Pass Class A

I have a pair of Grandinote Monos on order that use a tube circuit with transisitors. They are fully class A without negative feedback.

It will be very interesting to hear your thoughts on the Demone's vs. Pass Labs. I love my Grandinote Celio Phono pre.

Please keep us posted!

For sure I will, I should get the Grandinote in April. Having the Italian Vitus distributor in town, I'll will also try to get a Vitus power amplifer to compare with Pass and Grandinote.

Mike, of I'm not mistaken, one of the Grandinote founders might join the Sharks Dinner in Munich by invitation through Audiophon.

Cyrus II + PSX power supply. Luxman CL- 360 tube pre + Luxman MQ- 360 stereo power amp.

I must add: the Luxman power amp is just for drive my AKG K1000 headphones.
For the main speakers (Mission 767) I use a pair of tube McIntosh 275 in mono configuration plus the LFAU (solid state) active filter and low freq amp + PSX additional power supply.
In my second and smaller equipment, the amp is solid state. A Cyrus II SE + (again) PSX additional power supply, driving a pair of two way Vieta BD-5070 monitors, which I'm planning to replace for the stunning KEFs' LS 50 (and a KEF sub, too).

Until end of 2015, all Burmester (5 channels).
Then I heard my current amps, and I changed to Halgorythme.
3 mono blocks for the front three speakers, and 1 stereo amplifier for the rears.
They punch waaaaaay above their price point.

All tubes here. ARC Anniversary Pre & 610T Amps.

Dedicated AC being installed today-YEA. The rest of the house will not need to be a meat locker when listening to music any more.

 

[hongkong]

I have Proceed AMP2 and Proceed PRE.
Now, I have Jeff Rowland Corus and Model 625.

My question : Can I change for Air Tight ATM-4 with Air Tight ATC-3 ?

I have test tube with amplifier Melody and it's beautiful for the voices...
I have not recognize my loudspeakers...

Solid state!

 

[JPM]

The hybrid I use is the Pathos Classic Integrated amp. that's in my living room, driving the old Quad ESL 57 electrostatic speakers.
The tube amp. is a VTL tiny triod that drives my new Monitor Audio Silver RS6 speakers. Formerly they drove the Spendor 100 SL speakers, using a Reference Line Passive pre-amp.
When the mood suits me I have a no-name integrated 300B SET amp. that I use on my Spendors and now the Monitors.
Stashed in a closet, I have an Audio Illusions Mod II pre-amp that I'm not using because I like the Passive preamp better, and besides, it needs re-tubing.

I used to have VTL tiny triodes on Quad 57s and it was sublime.

Both in triamp arrangement, SS/tubes/SS. Low bass below 80 Hz handled by a 500w SS powered sub. > 80 by tube and SS biamped floor standers (Tannoys) driven by a pair of 125w tube monoblocks and a 100w/ch integrated SS for the high end.
