Horning owners what amps have you used?


Just curious what amps other owners, or previous owners, of the Aristoteles, Eufrodite, Agathon or Perikles have used. Chime in even if you don't own these speakers but have an opinion.

I know most everyone has heard these speakers with the TRON Discovery or Telstar at RMAF and the 211 is heavenly IMO, but way out of my price range.

I have the Aristoteles Zigma and a Thoress 300B SET (8w). I love it, but like anyone else who is possessed with sound addiction, as Neil says: rust never sleeps.

Has anyone used anything less than 8 watts? Or more power like a 300B PP or 845? I do have a Berning ZH270, and unlike a fellow Audiogon-er who had the ZH230 and Eufrodite and thought highly of the match, the ZH270 sound is not my thing.

It's hard not to get caught up in the Joule-Merlin synergy when hear them at a show. Same goes for the Horning-Tron synergy...not so for the deHavilland-Sonist combo, but that's just my opinion.

I live in the SF Bay Area.
Yes I know,I have the Tron Syren.I cant afford Tron amps but the deHavilland's work very well.
If you get to the north east your invited for a listen.
I have thought about a 300B amp but always opted to keep my 845G.Maybe we should switch electronics.
Enjoy your music
Dpe,
A 45 or 2A3 SET amp might be a bit of a stretch with your speakers, depends on room size, music volume etc.
I believe a good quality 845 amp would work very well with your Hornigs, just not sure if necessarily "better" than what you currently have.
I've heard the Eufrodites in Jeff's loft driven by both Tron and Horning amps. The new Sati integrated (he used a Tron phono stage) is simply awe inspiring.
