@roxy54 thanks for the thoughtful and helpful note on the complementarity between Sugden and Devore O/93s. I know they have been exhibited together and am glad to hear that it isn’t simply the audio reviewers who praise the confluence of those two! The IA-4 is the integrated in their masterclass line; just ordered mine, so fingers crossed. Anyhow, it’s just a backup for those sometimes pesky tubes. 💡
Sugden IA-4
I am running Devore 0/93 speakers which are massively forgiving and looking for a Solid State Integrated as a backup amp for a Push-Pull 300B integrated (coming soon).
I listen in a small room so power is a non-issue, but I do like good attack on bass, rich midsized, and a smooth, non-etched sound. My DAC helps in this regard: Lampizator Atlantic TRP with KT66 tubes.
My current integrated is tube-based (Linear Tube Audio Z10 integrated). I am presently considering the Sugden IA-4. Does anyone have any experience with this Sugden?
