New Amps to match up with PSB T3 speakers

@donpepe I would make sure that whatever amp you choose have the ability to deliver lots of current. As another poster mentioned, the T3’s are close to 4 ohms during much of the frequency curve. When I went from the Class D to the BAT, the bass delivery and detail the T3’s produced changed dramatically for the better. It went from the NAD ’house sound’, (somewhat thin but detailed with good sound-stage) to a much more harmonically richer and detailed speaker.

There are couple of BAT VK-600’s for sale right now. That is the bigger brother of the AMP I have. At least one is the Batpack version with upgraded capacitors. That one is only $3600. That's priced well. The BAT doubles down in current to 4 ohms, and is not rated at 2. You could also look into a BAT VK-6200 2 channel. They probably go for under $3500. *edited*

The BAT signature is neutral warm, sublimely detailed with excellent current delivery.

Larry worked with me for 3 months when I was looking for my AMP. He gets 5 stars.
Tell him Charles recommended you speak with him.

I have been using Herron Audio M-1 amps.  Very pleased with their performance.  My speakers run a minimum of around 3 ohms up to over 16 ohms.  I can find no audible signature or issues with the Herron amps.  They are very good bottom to top and easy to drive with just about any front-end equipment on the market with their high input impedance.  They fit your budget.  

 hi All,I'm considering the following Amps but haven't listened to any of them and some would exceed my budget. If you're familiar with them, I would appreciate your opinion.Thanks,joe

Sorry, here's the list:Ayre MX-R,Pass labs X350.8,Bat VK-600SE,McIntosh MC452 and MC601's.Thanks,Joe

I think the Mac fear would add a nice bit of warmth to the T3's,  but not the level of detail and speed as some of the others. The 350.8 is a very nice amp that I think would work quite well with the T3's. The BAT I think is one of the most versatile. It has a level of warmth,  detail,  dynamics and Bass control that I think would help you get the most from your speakers. 

What kind of music do you listen to most? I think rock would favor the BAT,  with it being a toss-up between the Pass and BAT on other kinds of music. If you favor dynamics detail and like a bit of neutral warmth,  go with BAT. If you like a bit more warmth with a bit less emphasis on dynamics and speed,  than you might favor the Pass. Either way you probably couldn't go wrong.

BAT has amazing customer service btw. You can call and talk to any of the 2 principals,  Viktor or Steve anytime. They really stand behind all their products. 

Good luck! 👍
