How do I beat my Antique Sound Labs AV25?
I have had a pair of ASL AV25 monoblocks for a couple
years now and am amazed by their sound quality given
their price. They don't come up for sale often here
on Agon, but I think I paid $400 or so for my pair. I
have compared them to Dared VP20, Atmasphere S30, Jolida
502b, and recently Welborne DRD300b. In each instance,
the ASLs were better to such a degree that I have
a hard time imagining that system synergy has anything to
do with it. They won each battle hands down.
I've spent more on shipping and resale of these other amps than I paid for the ASLs.
Has anyone else owned these cheap little superamps, and if so, what have you upgraded to?
My other equipment, FYI, is a Cambridge 840c, a REL B3 sub,
a passive preamp, and DIY monitors (I didn't build them) that have Dynaudio tweeters, and scanspeak woofers. The speakers are extremely well built and have a very detailed audiophile sound compared to my old Soliloquys.
