I use the new Rogue Audio Tempest Magnum with my Virgos $2695 Integrated. It is a huge step up in quality from the stock tempest with a much larger power supply and output transformers. It renders a huge soundstage with great detail and is able to really kick, if want even more power I would go with the Magnum 120 monos. I find Cary to hideously overpriced and colored to a faulr, I've heard many of their amps in many situations.
Favorite Tube Amps, Reasonably Priced
I have seen several tube amp lines, made in china (i think), like Sun, Antique Audio, Audio note. Cary has a cheaper line, Audio Electronic supply. Has anyone listened to these? Any recommendations, I have Audio physic Virgos, so i need an amp with some balls. Are the high end Carys, like the 805's, worth the scratch? Thanks......
