Granite Audio amps


Anyone here have any experience with any of the Granite audio tube amps? Particularly the 860.1, but would welcome feedback in general about their products.

Thanks for the responses guys. Anybody ever heard their speaker cables? That might end up being part of the deal too.

Thanks,

Joe,

Thanks for the detailed and insightful response. I am very much looking forward to hearing the Granites in my system this weekend.

Hi Joe,

Yes I got them and I like them very much. Very transparent and detailed, while still being quite musical. Not etched or hyper detailed at all. But I think they aren't going to have enough power for the volumes I listen to in my fairly large room. My Music Reference RM9, while not quite as refined and transparent, has more balls and is slightly more dynamic. For listening at more sane levels, this wouldn't be an issue. But when I want to crank it, I REALLY want to crank it. I should probably keep them and wait until I am in my new listening room, which may be smaller, but I will probably pass them on. I might regret it in the long run however, but the RM9 is such a well balanced performer that it's hard to beat it.
