I have used a Krell KSA 200s (circa 1993) with both the Contour 3.3's and the Confidence C-5's. I use a tube (Ah!) CD player and the Krell is just wonderful with both speakers. The high end is sweet and pure coupled with a powerful decisive low end. You can buy a used Krell KSA 200s for about $2600-2900 (new 7500). I could not be happier with my setup. This system is very satisfying at low volume levels too.
Suitable amplifier for Dynaudio Contour 3.3?
Hi Everyone,
I am looking for some feedback regarding amplifier choices for my Dynaudio Contour 3.3s. I currently use the Levinson 334 which is certainly suitable for driving the speakers, but was wondering what other amplifiers should be considered. Price is in the 4-5K range. Since synergy is important, I have listed components below relative to 2-channel.
Current system (for 2-channel):
Levinson 334 amp
Theta Casablanca II w/Extreme DAC
Ayre D-1x CD/DVD
Nordost Valhalla digital and analog cables.
Synergistic Resolution Reference speaker cables.
Thanks in advance.
