If I remember, The Stratus Gold i is 90db efficient. If your room's not too big, the Cary Rocket 88 might work like a champ. I use one to alternate (summer and winter) with my Bel Canto EVo2. My N804s are only 87db efficient, but my room's small at 11x13'.
Seek Tube Amp to Flip-Flop with SS Amp
Having listened to a variety of systems lately, using a variety of sources, I am convinced that some things just sound better using a SS amp and some using tubes. I currently have a McCormack DNA-225 which I like very much. I would now like to add a tube amp to my system so that I can use one or the other without exchanging too many of my existing components, PC, cables, IC's. Would be obliged for suggestions of a tube amp in the $2-2.5K (USED) range. Thanks.
System:
DNA-225 w/H Tech AC-11 - H. Tech Truthlink (copper) IC
Kora Eclipse preamp w/Ensemble Megaflux PC - H. Tech Truthlink (copper) IC
Nottingham Spacedeck - Spacearm w/Tracer#3 & Origin Live w/Dynavector 20
Rega Jupiter CD w/H Tech AC-11 - Nordost Red Dawn IC
Older Sony Tuner - stock AC - Zu Oxyfuel IC
PSB Stratus Goldi's w/H Tech pro9 biwires
Tweaks to numerous to mention.
