Opinions on SS amps


Hi there,
I am really just doing research and gathering opinions of the knowledgable crowd here at the 'gon.

Some day I'll move up the line of focal speakers, probably to the alto (91dB) for a more involving sound than my current 1007be monitors. Of course with that, I would eventually want to try some of the more acclaimed "musical" class A SS amps.

Right now, pass labs XA series, dartzeel, and the Rowland 302 are on my radar as having reputations of being very musical. I am sure there are others I must be missing. Suggestions and comments are greatly appreciated. As well, if anybody has come across a great combintion (ss or tube) with any of the focal utopia line, those suggestions would also be invaluable.

Thanks for your time,
Peter

Peter,

With 91dB speakers you should highly consider the Red Wine Audio Signature 30 or Signature 70s. They are very musical and battery powered so no power line noise. If they were in fancy enclosures and not sold factory-direct, I'm sure they'd be priced much higher.

Good luck,

Nate
