In the meantime I believe purchasing the Dynamo 34SE might be a good move, but don't want to jump just yet, would like more info and impressions from the A-gon community. Does Blume give in home trials?
Another great tube amp is made by Dennis Had.He is now retired and the man who started Cary Audio. Boy he makes killer amps for around $1000 that just can't be beat. He hand makes each one and they point to point wired with good quality parts.
The line is called Inspire and trust me when I say they sound first class in every way. Nice guy also.
He makes several amps and all lifetime kinds of amps!
Mikirob, I don't believe a home trial is available. I'd feel very confident buying this amp given the pedigree and the builder's stellar track record. I've had nothing but excellent service and follow up with Israel Blume. Thanks you for your kind comments. Charles,
Charles, I'd likely purchase one of Israel's speakers. At the moment I have Tekton Lore, Tekton 4.5, as well as Infinity Prelude Compositions, 96db, 4 Ohm/with built in 300 watt amp driving the 12 inch woofers. I currently own a Cary V12, Cary 300SEI, and Primaluna One. I'd sell some of this other gear assuming the Coincident 300b is better, which I believe it is. Especially set up as you have it.
