I met the folks from Art Audio once down in S. Florida and i was very impressed with their passion and commitment to their product line. I heard an SE amp from them- i can't be sure what model- and it sounded very nice but the speakers used needed a bit more power than the amp could produce. gorgeous build quality from what i could tell. And if you need "X" amount of power, you can talk to them about what speakers you are hoping to use, your room, etc.
Art Audio Jota VS Audio Note Conquest
Friends, I am in a situation where one of these could be mine. Both are similarly priced, specs are also similar. Both are Parallel Single ended 300B power amps with 18 watts per channel output. Has anyone heard both ? Or at least has anyone heard similar amps from both these brands ? How do they differ in their presentation ? Any input would greatly helpful in choosing between them.
My taste is more towards honest and truthful presentation rather than being rosy. But I want to keep to tubes, no SS.
