I'm an HH Scott fan, having a 299C, 272, and a 296. My son has a 299D which he also loves. And I've found Klipsch heritage speakers love HH Scott amps. My son has the Heresy and I have a pair of Cornscala's.

I was initially running a Peachtree Audio Nova300 and was very happy with it, but then I got mesmerized by McIntosh's blue meters and swapped the Peachtree out for a McIntosh MAC6700

Did anybody listen to Devialet 1000 Pro? or compared to top of the line Integrated amps?

I'll write a separate thread about it. It was good.

Bart, did you finally opened the threat about the Devialet? I am very curious about their PRO line.

I'm currently using a McIntosh MA8000. I like it very, very much. Beautiful sounding IA.
In the past I used (and still own) a Jolida JD 502 IA. I used that amp when I had my Magnepan 1.7's. The sonics left a lot to be desired, so I hunted down a pair of Musical Fidelity 550K Superchargers to use with the Jolida. Wow! did that make a difference. The 550K's were just sort of like giant heat sinks. They ran hot. Combined with the Jolida tubes and our deep south summers...and well, that system had to go. So, enter the McIntosh. She runs cool all day and night. I also used at one time a Marantz IA. It was nothing to write home about. Still have it though. |

Currently enjoying my Ayre AX-5 Twenty. Hard to say what might be in store for the future.

The most legendary Integrated Amp (Receiver) to me was the Kyocera R-851. That plus B&W DM330i was my dad's system growing up and I took it with me to college. I loved it till the output MOS-FET's died rather catastrophically. Something caused a failure on the driver board and it just cascaded. I found all the replacement components except for the MOS-FETs.
I got a RA-1592 recently. It didn't last one as the main source on the Focal Aria. Currently using it on the Dynaudio Special 40's. Pretty decent combo. |
