This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in.


I am buying Dynaudio C-1 Platinums and would like an ideal amp. Which would you choose? I prefer solid state. Separates or integrated. If you could recommend a few optimum choices that would be great. Based on my short couple years on here you strike me as very knowledgable on the subject. My dealer wants me on Pass Labs. Incidentally right now I have the Devialet 400 and I’m pretty sure you are not a fan of this type of amp. Any of your wisdom is appreciated. Thanks, Mike

I have owned a Solid State amplifier with Dynaudio speakers combo for over 15 years. I think a large stereo (350watts into 4ohms) from McIntosh Labs, Jeff Rowland Design, Plinus , Classe Audio or if you can swing some nicely powered mono blocks (500 watts into 4ohms). I like separate components. These speakers require high power to open up and blow you away! Give them the right Amp and upstream sources you will be able to experience these speakers as intended. (great stands are a must as well)
