Opinoins on SS.amps.

Wolcott Amps are one of the best for driving your speakers

Do a search in the ads for McCormack. I currently see a DNA-2 Deluxe and DNA-2 Rev A for sale. Looks like both amps include a Synergistic Research A/C Master Coupler cord, which is a good bonus. The Deluxe with SMc Audio mods would give you what you want with your speakers.
Same with the Rev A and no waiting list for the mods. There are only a couple of upgrades not included with the Rev A that SMc offers, the Gold options.
Read about them here:
SMc Audio

Adcom 5802 is the amp

Thanks to all of you for your input,it is appreaciated.Regards Bob

I have an Ayre V-5x that replaced an Ayre V-3 & I mention that as anytime somebody (not just myself) sticks with the same brand that says something about the product.

I also have a Pass pre in my system & although you can get 100 opinions here, to make yourself happy you have to listen to it in your system to make the final decision. Sometimes that requires buying the piece you're interested in & then having to resell it because it didn't work out.

I mention the Ayre V-5x as we share similar musical tastes although I'm more female vocal & rock oriented but am building my jazz collection. Good luck with your search.

Check out the Ayre Acoustic V-5x and V-1x amplifiers.

Bobf,

I've used the old stand-by tube pre- and SS power for years and years. Perhaps I'll buy a SS pre- for comparison sometime soon. I've always enjoyed the tube warmth the pre- adds to the solid state power and control.

Have a listen to Pass amps. While solid state, their sound has some attractive tube-like characteristics. I think of them as a combination of the best of both worlds. Good luck.
