Amplifier suggestion for Dynaudio Sapphire

Im just curious ,what are your first impressions of the Saphires now that you own them

Superb midrange, very tight bass, crystal clear ups, coherent, neutral

I auditioned the saphires at lenght a few times..sounded more like the Contour line(5.4) to me than the Confidence line so I passed on those and bought the C4s..Have you heard them?

Missioncoonery I heart them both. I made compariton side by side with c4 and sapphire. Amp. was Plinius sa-ref, Musical Fidelity Primo. All cables audioquest well signiture or white series. Source was Project Extension, Ortofon Perwinfeld cartridge, Plinius Koru phono stage. C4 was better in the lf, in the midrange section sapphire was far more better for my taste. Both of them were good. But because of the room size and waf factor I ended with sapphire. Because they are limited, I did not hesitate to buy. IMO in second hand market they may have a better value then C4, not only for their limited production, because of their size, waf friendly type vs.vs.

thanks for the comparo Altanpsx--btw, looking at the Stereophile measurements of the Sapphire, forgot that Dynaudio seems to have a bit more aggressive treble in its special release speakers (Special 25, Sapphire, etc).

Pass or BAT would probably be a slightly better match than the Krell.

Good luck!
