Another controversy is on this link:
https://www.cnet.com/news/first-watt-f7-very-special-amplifier-dazzled-the-audiophiliac/
In the end of the review it says that the FirstWatt F-7 sounded better than the ASR Emitter II amplifier!!
Like saburo said, ASR Emitter II amplifier is the amp of choice for 57’s and the best match of Chesky, Wyatt!
And when I wanted to replace my tube amps with two FirstWatt F7 amps (one amp for each side) and speaking with Marc from Reno HiFi, he said that the F7 can’t drive a pair of 57’s.
He recommend PASS XA-30.5, or 30,8 at list!
