Borresen amplification question

Yes, I have tried my Borresen with a variety of amps.

You don't need Aavik. In fact, the class D Aavik does not sound that good with Borresen...gets fatiguing...no "ideal" house sound there.

Here are some amps that can shine with it....at different price brackets

Schiit Tyr monos (impressive)

Rotel Michi (a bit more lively, could feel a tad genre picky)

Luxman c900u/m900u (immaculate)

Technics flagship (very transparent, has some unique tricks, it just shows what's upstream of it)

Also sounds good with older heavyweight Levinsons

Such combos beat out Aavik to my ears easily.

I have not audited the flagship class A Aavik in my room, however. I would wager that it sounds good if you empty your wallet for the class A flagship. But, i have no such plans of emptying the wallet when i can have a good time with amps priced a lot less..

The key to elevating Borresen however is bass management. When you prevent those small woofers from moving too much by snipping the low bass octaves/sending it to subs...you're in for a treat.

Many thanks for your reply/perspective.  Recently had a pr of the T1's in for review, and they seemed to run very well with my VAC Master/Statement 450S iQ.  Having no other power plants to compare this with, I was just curious what the favored synthesis is, or if even relevant. 

Yes, you can pair them with other amps.

I have a pair of Borresen Z1s and I’m running Pass Labs XA60.5s. Love the combo. I’ve never felt the desire for something else. If I made any change it would be upstream to my analog rig.

So don’t sweat it. Find what you like and enjoy.
