Thumbs up for the red dragon s500, I think you’ll have to score a used one at this point though. Plenty of power and authority while neutral. Great instrument separation as well. Heard a lot of improvement with an after-market power cable which I also found with my previous peachtree nova 150. Using with Kef LS50’s and my roomates tannoy XT-8f. Passive TVC preamp from promitheus.
Hate to do this again. Start over. Class d
Seriously stop the fighting. I tried to get thru the last discussion, but it was over 400 replies of arguing. So please, no arguing. I want know who is using the nord or apollon nc500 amps. Se version, and upgrades. Sparkos or SI amp. I dont care about 50k amps, because they are over my budget. 2 to 3k fits me fine. Looking to use with my winds 4ohm, anthem mrx720 and bluesound 2. My amp now is a bat vk200 which sounds sweet, but at times I really want more power. I would go for a vk600se, but out of my range. Also what speakers and pre are you using. I remember very long time ago when audiogon people helped more with less fighting.
