I doubt the Classe unit is causing this "flat" sound. I own Classe gear and they have a warm sound to them, just the opposite of what you are describing. I would work on the room first. When you get the room fixed, try a different set of cables. The oval 12's are the lowest quality of the AP line. Try a set of their "Solo" cables for each connection if you like AP, which is a major step up in quality. Or audition different cables from other vendors.
VTL-IT85 or Classe CAP-151 for magnepan MMG
I am currently using a Classe intergrated with my MMGs. Although the Classe has plenty of power I do find it a little flat, ( maybe lack of tone controls? )remember hearing VTL450's with the 3.6's and was blown away. Considered swapping for the IT-85 for a little more warmth and better soundstage. I've tried placement all over the room and Im using analysis plus oval 12's. Room size is 20 x 24 and a little bright. Any comments or suggestions would be welcome. Thanks, John
