Luxman C-1000F+two B-1000F vs AYRE K-XR+four M-XR




Hi all!

Best amps for JBL DD66000 Everest - LUXMAN C-1000F and two B-1000F or AYRE K-XR and four M-XR (bi-amp) or, may be ML52 + ML53?
I can not make the right choice! Help please!

Best regards, Roman, Moscow

Thank You! May be 2 X M-800A. But M-800A are not so special like B-1000F+C-1000F. And not so good by tests&measurement. If to look at class A power operation amps I should definitely consider ESOTERIC A-03 amp for instance. And pay attention that Harman typically use Mark Levinson #53 for DD66000. Questions, questions...
Hey, if you have money to blow, just go for the B1000f monos. The system will sound great with Luxmans for sure, and I agree with Audiooracle they are works of art. ML is not on the same level.
HI! Many thanks! But you prefer C800 + 2 X M800A? Cheaper, class A and more flexible (biamp/bridge)? Regards!
I have listened to the M-800A and I think it will be complementary to Everests because of their respective sound, and you're right, they are more flexible so you can experiment. I haven't listened to the B-1000f so I should not opine. I prefer the C-1000f because of its much lower output impedance, just in case you have long interconnects. And go balanced anyway.
Thanks for the important information! What is your opinion, amplifiers AYRE KX-R/MX-R and Mark Levinson 532 in my system is not so good? What can you say about AYRE sound?
