Definitely the Leben CS-600 with the Harbeths as they have known synergy. I wouldn't touch Ayon's amps for 3 reasons. 1. Firstly they are 100% made in China (Koowloon, Hong Kong to be precise), 2. They are VERY unreliable & 3. Ayon change models way too quickly which kills the resale of earlier models. I'd take the Lux over Ayon any day of the week.
Which integrated tube amp to go with which speaker
Need advice for integrated tube amp and speaker combo for a small 13'x11' listening room. I'm used to my class A low watt SET mono block system/preamp/high efficiency speakers but am selling off this system and need to change listening areas anyway.
Integrated tube amp choices are:
1. Luxman sq-38u
2. Leben CS-600
3. Ayon Spark II vs Triton III
Higher output Triton III included because I'm unsure of speaker I will use.
Speaker choices:
1. Harbeth c7es3
2. ProAc Response D2s
I listen to classical and jazz at low to moderate volumes, nothing really loudly.
Open to other suggestions.
Thank you for your help.
