I am using an ARC LS-25 mk1 with a matched quad of NOS Amperex 6dj8's. Amp is the new ARC 150.2 digital switching amplifier. Tubes+SS+Digital control = best sound I have ever had in my home. You will be hearing more about the 150.2 once the rag mags wake up. Was looking to spend much more- no need.
Best Tube Preamp & SS Amp Combos
I am looking for opinions on tube preamps and SS amp combinations. I currently own the Pass X-1 and X-250 SS units. I would be looking to spend $5K - $10K on the combo new or used. I recently heard the Sim Audio W-5 SS amp with the Art Audio new Gill tube preamp and it sounded really nice. I will probably try the Art with my Pass but would like to know what other combinations to consider.
Thanks and Happy Listening.
