Anyone heard the Consonance Cyber 800 amps?


Was just looking through the specs on these cool looking mono-blocks and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them.

What type of speakers will they drive? Are they OK with an electrostat? Overall sound character? etc?

I read the review from HiFi+ which was quite favorable, which has now piqued my interest.

Thanks to any & all responders!

Please don't worry about it, Mrjstark!

I just don't want anyone ending up with a 4th of July scenario. I have personally tried the JJ KT77, Sovtek 6550, EH KT88, and JJ KT88 in the Cyber 800 tube monoblock amplifiers. None are compatible due to the bias settings. It will be apparent within about 5 to 7 seconds this isn't something that's going to work.

All of the EL34 and 6CA7 I have tried have no issue.

The Cyber 800 uses a cathode bias configuration. While you cannot run the other tube types, it's quite convenient in that there is nothing to adjust.

Stephen is no longer the distributor or a dealer for the line.

Thank you again!
Joe. Thank You for clarification. P.S I did not know that Steve isn't a OPERA dealer any more ( have not talk to him in a while ). I'm very surprise , because Consonance was probably one of his most successful lines. Anyway, thanks again. Sincerely ; M.Stark

"it's quite convenient in that there is nothing to adjust."

Do you mean that there are no bias adjustments for this amp ? I am not familiar with 'a cathode bias configuration.'
Sounds interesting .

Thank you .
Saki70, yes, that is the case. There are no bias adjustments with this amplifier. So long as you make sure you stick with EL34 and 6CA7 output tubes, it's simply plug and play.
Cybers feature auto-bias. It's auto biasing each tube for maximum performance.
