Which SS amp does sound the most warm of all?


I'm looking for a warm sounding SS amp. The one with the most tubie sound of all.

Now my choise endend by three SS amps,

or the:

Pass Labs Aleph 1.2
Jeff Rowland 8T
Mcintosh MC 1000

These amp are only to drive the high/mids of my speakers system. I love the 3D effect, holografic sound,sound stage, the placement and the finest detail.

Any other advice is welkome. Please help me out.

Thank for the feedback

Definately McIntosh is up there in the warm department. All models are but lesser powered ones especially. You could add Conrad Johnson to the list too. Arthur

While I think the term "dark" is better than warm in this case, Electrocompaniet might be a consideration.

I don't think "dark" and "warm" are necessarily the same thing. I like some warm sounding components, but have really hated some dark sounding ones.

IMHO,

Warm = full, rich, big

Dark = syrupy, less aliveness, recessed, distant
