Try a modded amp from Mike Elliot,at altavistaaudio,talk to him,good luck,Bob
Best amp for $2000-3000
I have finally saved enough money for a new system. I think I'm 99% decided on the Magnepan 3.6's as speakers. I am looking for recommendations on the following:
Amp - $2000-3000. I like the Odyssey Extreme Mono's or the Innersound ESL.....but I'm open to suggestions.
Preamp - I currently have an old Perreaux SM2 Preamp -- is this good enough?
CD - I currently have a Sony CDP-990 with an optical out. Should I just add a
DAC to this?
DAC - Looking at the Benchmark DAC-1 or a used Muse 2
Sub - narrowed it down to REL, Sunfire or Velodyne.
Speakers - Maggie 3.6's -- unless someone can twist my arm to listen to something else.
Any thoughts are welcome!!
Thanks,
Mike

Forgot to mention the ICE based amps such as the Rowland 201. EVS is bringing an amp to the market that should be good as well. |
