IMO, the Rocket 88 goes very well with classical music; warm and sweet sounding, not great in detail but overall a very good coherent sounding amp top to bottom. What are your sources and preamps? Perhaps you might try different sources or preamps if it's not the speaker. If you're just looking for other tube amps, VTL, ARC, Pathos, Cary V12 as mentioned are some which would likely be a good candidate.
Is there better amp for bass then Cary Rocket 88
Hi,
Just wondering if somebody had better experience with bass then Cary Rocket 88 can deliver on speakers with 90db sensitivity (I use Audes 037.1)
Within the same price range what would be the better one in your opinion? To me bass won't be punchy but rather soft and engulfing. Mostly I listen too is classics (piano, violin, sax, strings, chamber).
Thanks
Anatoliy
