Tube amp for Dynaudio Contour 2.8 speakers


Just wondering if any members have experience with Dynaudio speakers, especially the Contour 2.8. I am looking to purchase a tube amp to run my Contour 2.8 speakers. Any recomendation would be a help for me. Thanks!

Seanstrong,

If you don't like the traditional Krell / Pass / Levinson sort of high end solid state sound, but still need something that mates with inefficient speakers like the Dynaudios, you may want to try something like the Bel Canto Evo 2 line (a company that knows tube sound) or the new PS Audio GCC amps, which have substantial bass control, but don't have the glare of traditional SS equipment. They don't sound exactly like tubes but they don't sound exactly like SS or hybrid amps either, so I'd at least audition them with your Dynaudo 2.8s (Esotar tweeters?)

Most high end dealers will allow you an in-home audition, so it can't hurt to check it out.
