Best amp under 1k for Soliloquy 5.0s


Hello Everyone,

I just purchased a used pair of Soliloquy 5.0s with the matching stands. The recommended amplification of 8 to 200 watts really leaves the door wide open from low watt tubes to higher powered SS amps. If anyone has had experience with these speakers I would love to hear what they found to be the most pleasing combination.

At this point I don't have much of a preference between tubes and SS, simply because the only experience I've had with tubes has been in a Jolida 1501RC i owned a few years back. However, if possible I wouldn't mind trying monos (either tube or SS) simply because I've never owned monoblocks before and I'd like to give them a shot if it makes sense.

Just from looking around it appears that Antique Sound Labs, nOhr, Vincent, and NuForce all have monoblocks that are in this price range used, but I'm sure there are others I've missed. Are any of these options worth looking into?

Almost all of my listening is done streamed from an Apple Macbook Pro. My listening room is 14' b 20'

Thanks in advance,

Joe

Try the Consonance SS amps very well priced and might be just the sound you want. P.S. Vincent is an OEMed - Sheg Ya I think??? maybe Consonance.
