Mine is Direct Coupled F1 from Upsacle Audio and is definetly not warm sounding. My speakers are Focal 1007 Be monitors with HGA X32 all silver speaker cables. I am currently using Genalex KT-88 output tubes.
Cary SLI-80, Too Warm?
I am in the market for a new integrated amp and speakers. My front end is Koetsu RSP and Herron VTPH-2.
I have not settled on speakers yet but will likely opt for a monitor given my relative small room (1800 cu. ft). Merlin TSM's (previously owned VSM's) are on my list as well as the Acoustic Technologies single driver which I will listen to next week and several others.
Would the Cary be too warm given the Herron/Koetsu combination?
I am not specifically wedded to a tube amp.
