OK,getting close-- VAC 30/30 SIG. is a good.....

The 30/30 Signature is a supurb amp that will drive a lot of speakers, but it is not right for 802's of any vintage. It should be run with a 90 db. or higher efficient speaker, and a speaker of very high quality (Verity, etc.).

The added nice thing about the 30/30's is the long-life 300-B output tubes that auto-bias and the output tube failure shutdown feature -- all you do is turn the amp on and off, and every five years or so, replace the output tubes. No tube amp hassles.

Nice reply, Raquel. Having owned 2 SET amps(realizing VAC 30/30 is PP)I had to find out the hard way that just about any speaker that drops below 4 is NOT A GOOD MATCH.
A while back there was an ad for the same model Montana's that I once owned;in this ad,the guy says "93 sensitive--SET friendly"____NOT SO,say I.___ I guess I was afraid to ask the necessary stupid question and payed the price.

The VAC 30/30 Signature does not have a separate outboard power supply, bu the new VAC Phi 30/30 does. Either of the amps are more than capable of driving the B & W 802 speakers with plenty of energy and control. Depending on your room size and listening preferences, the 32 w.p.c. that the amp puts out are only capable of sane SPL's with the 802 speakers. The amp is very stable with even tougher loads than the 802's, and will surprise you even if you are use to far more powerful solid state designs.
The 30/30 is one of the most musical amps I have ever owned, and is extremely dependable as well. The newest Phi version is even more detailed and quieter with it's improved, larger outboard power supply. It is also a visual work of art! Service from VAC is as good as it gets in high end audio. I have owned 4 different 30/30's over the last 10 years, including the Phi amp, and never had a single problem with any of them. A fantastic product!
