A friend (serious amp freak) recently acquired the Belles 350 (hot rod?). After listening, I was totally impressed by how neutral this amp is. We played the full spectrum -rock to classical. The Belles was hot, dry and shallow if that was on the CD; Warm, liquid and sweet when disk deserved it. Very neutral...
Best Amp for under 10K?
I'm building a new system and have been away from the audio world for a long time.
So far I've purchased the Sonus Amiti Homage and Sonus Cremona speakers.
I've also purchased the VTL TL 5.5 pre amp, an Aerial Acoustic SW-12 subwoofer and the Transparent cables.
Now I need to select the best amp for the system.
I've been looking at the VTL MB 450, the Levinson No 336, a pair of the Bel Canto EVO 200.2 and the Classe Cam 350.
All opinions and recommendations are welcome.
