Hi Gpgr4blu
I am considering a Ref 150 (non SE) to drive Vienna Acoustics Kiss speakers. My concern based on hearing non Classic Audio Research amps is that they veer more towards solid state than tubey and your comments that they are on the side of light and airy strikes a note as I like bloom and warmth, moving on from Krell. My other consideration was Ayre.
What is your system? Do you have any views of pairing a Ref 150 with a Cary SLP 05 preamp (which I have now).
Thanks
