I intend to pruchase an ARC tubed pre (LS 16 or 25) and was wondering which high current SS amp matches well with it. I often seen them paired with Levinson amps but was wondering if Krell, Simaudio, Pass (or others) will also have good synergy.
Thanks for all your responses. However, I think I may have found a deal on a BAT vk-31se which can't be passed up. My brief search for an ARC pre has ended.
ARC preamps have (relatively) low output impedance for tube gear and therefore can run well with many SS amps. I had a great 7 year run with the ARC Ref One and Pass Aleph 2 100w monoblocks in balanced mode; that was a terrific combination.
