Ice Block Amps

My ice-based mono-block amps are Audio Magic model 250's that are very tweaked and upgraded. My 300B SET is a John Hogan 6sn7/76/300B with all Webster OPT iron.

My JH 300B SET - strenghts are a heavenly midrange, clarity, air, imaging and layering/depth; weakness are at the extremes (where most low watt SET's are challenged)

My custom AM model 250's - strenghts are everything, they are just the best amps I've heard; weakness is a strong second to the heavenly midrange of my JH 300B (but still excellent)

Vman71, which manufacturers and models are your ICE and 300B amps? Can you tell us more about their relative strengths and weaknesses? G.

I have a pair of ice-based mono-block amps and completely love them. They are not as magical in the midrange as my 300B SET amp but more than make up for it in the extremes (where the 300B SET doesn't do quite as well). If I had to choose between the two, for me, I would keep my ice-based mono-block amps.

I guess I'm outta tune with this latest tech. What exactly is ICE Power?

Jeff Rowland uses ICE-POWER in some of his designs. I'm using a new set of 501s and they are pretty amazing. This is especially true given their small size.

Have not tried the ICE Blocks yet. The Seymour AV web page describing them is at:

The devices are attractively priced, but not having heard them, I can't even guess at their sound.
