Amp for VR4SR

I am very pleased with the Spectron Musician 3SE, now an MK2, running my 4 Seniors. Plenty of muscle to make them sing! I'm currently using a Belles 28A pre (SS), but also use a Modwright 9SE (tube) on occasion. The Spectron is sensitive to IC cables...AZ Mattrix Ref IIs are my choice. Check out the other threads on the Spectron. Yes..they are all true.

Takeone: I have had both Nuforce 9SE and Channels Islands (D-200) in my system in the last couple of years. Without going into an extended assessment, my experience would be: Nuforce-Excellent and deep bass control, RFI can be problematic, especially if you have a tuner in your system, highs can have a glare but can be tamed with the right cabling. I've heard great things about the V2 upgrade...but haven't heard them myself. Channel Islands: Less bass authority but you can listen to them all day with little fatigue, no RFI issues, a pleasant personality but the goose-bump factor wasn't there. Last year at RMAF Albert was running a pair of 4jr's MKII (I beleive) with a new CI model D-400..twice the power of the D-200s...sounded wonderful. From my perspective, the Spectron takes all the best attributes of class D and a few of attributes of tubes and rolls them into one.
