I had the Revel F208 and a McIntosh MA352 integrated hybrid and then wanted to upgrade the system, so I got a McIntosh MC462 SS amp with a SS pre amp, and Sonus Faber Amati's. It was such a change but so harsh that I had to return everything.
Then I got the Studio 2's, which sound great, but thought they needed a bit more power. So yesterday, I got the MC462 again but this time paired it with the C2800 Tube Pre amp.
OMG
Solid and warm, but with so much detail. Quiet and open soundstage.
