Tubes which leads you to Primaluna most likely at this price point. I have owned some of their stuff and it is very nice.
Suggestions on a new /used amp for Focal speakers.
Hello.
My speakers are Focal 826W powered by two rebuild Sony TA-55ES , but i think it is time sell them and to upgrade to one amplifier.
Some details: room is 12 by 18 feet with cathedral ceiling/lots of curtains, large paintings, carpet floors.
Amplifier is set up on a dedicated 20 amp line.
As far as the sound itself, mids and sound stage are more important to me than bass. Of course I want tight bass, but at my age, it is not that important.I am looking for a warm sound versus more detail.
I mostly listen to CD`s (sometimes MacBook). The genres I listen to are: classic rock, blues and some classic music as well. Mostly low to mid level, but when the wife is gone, sometimes I crank it!
Budget is about $ 3000 , more or less.
Thoughts? Ideas?
Thank you for your suggestions.
(hope this make sense!)
