Anyone know what Dennis Had's favorite amp is?
Or the one he is most proud of.
Be interesting to know. I know it's probably "The next one" LOL |

As I have an SLI-80, feel sure that is the one he prefers.

If you speak with him, you will come away convinced that it is whatever one he is currently building! There is a long thread on AA about the Inspire amps that Dennis currently builds and sells on an auction site. His enthusiasm is infectious.

Reading between the lines, Dennis has stated the CAD 805 to be his best sounding amp. That being said, he has stated that his latest Inspire PSE amp with upgraded power supply and KT77's gives the CAD 805 a run for its money.

There is a review of an Inspire Fire-Bottle SE Stereo Power Amplifier on the 10 Audio blog. The blogger also owns CAD 805's and compares them. I believe that the Inspire gear is a sharp stink in the eye of the present Cary owners.

I've been following that for a while now. Very cool. I can't remember, but has anyone posted the video review that is on youtube of one of Inspire Amps?

Dennis has mentioned multiple times his love for his amps that use the 6V6 tubes. It takes him back to the 1st amp he ever built which he claims was a single-ended 6V6G amplifier for his 7th grade science fair.
