Title: With open baffle ,, is tube pre and tube amp ok ??
Post by: 2bigears on 15 Apr 2021, 05:47 pm

 :D hello all good AC peeps. A question on M3 Sapphires. If your preamp is tube based,, will a low power tube amp be on the soft side of tone or like a small Pass Labs SS amp be better. What I'm saying is will a small 50W tube drive rock and roll and the like well ?? A little XA 30.8 or a LTA Ref 40 ???? Two examples. Good ones i would think ??  Thanks for any help on the matter.... :D

I use a Pass xa25 and also a FW F4 with my M4TM’s, exquisite sound!
and also the 2018 Passdiy line stage and a Supratek line stage.
