Hi,
New here.
I am currently considering an upgrade from some old cheaper gear, and will get both amp and speakers. (The DAC is not that old and cheap, an exaSound e22mk2)
For the speakers, I have my eyes nearly set on the TAD ME1.
For the amping part, I am more confused.
Initially was considering the Octave V80se, but AB comparison with the Esoteric F-03a changed my mind and now looking at class A integrated.
So my questions are:
The TAD are not easy to drive for floorstanders; would the e65, with high quality class A 30W be enough to get them up to their best?
Does anyone has experience comparing the Accuphase and Esoteric I mentioned?
Does a class A integrated have problems in hot and humid summer if used for hours on end listening to music or TV? Should the amp always be left on for better sound, even if not in use?
Sorry for so many questions,
Cheers!
