Dartzeel or Tenor for Marten Coltrane speakers???

hi Maxx1973, congrats on the speakers. i've also got a pair, & will be trying out various amps with them (once they're broken-in).

anyway, here's a list of amps that were recommended to me(these are based on my numerous enquires as well as email correspondences with various Coltrane dealers, distributors, & owners):

Audio Note Kegon
Bladelius Beowulf
Dartzeel NHB-108
FM Acoustics FM411 mk2
Hovland Stratos
Lamm ML2.1
Vitus SM-101

a pity i'm unable to get hold of these Vitus monos for a demo. i've had some loaner Jorma Primes bal. i/c & bi-wire s/c fm the local Marten & Jorma distributor (who's been absolutely fantastic). the Jorma Primes are just amazing!!

if Jorma Koski designs his cables using Vitus amps, this pairing must be pretty special. unfortunately, considering what the Vitus amps cost, no way i'd consider buying a pair w/out a home-demo.

hi Bfjohansson, yes, Marten does offer this option (i ordered mine with a customized front baffle & internal wires upgraded with Jorma Primes).

interesting... i had considered & researched the ASR (online), but decided not to try it cause its got too many 'boxes' (i haven't got the space).
