looking for quality low power intagrated for high db speakers.
« on: 8 Jun 2007, 02:59 pm »
What do you guys recommend to power a 95db speaker. I am looking at getting the Silver Iris OB speaker. So all I need is like 10-25 wpc, and at least 3 inputs.

Thanks,

Trends ta-10 + Promitheus TVC (should be an excellent combo)

Sorry,  not an integrated...

CAD 300 SEI
15 watts per channel, Single Ended Triode design, Pure Class A, Integrated Stereo Amplifier with 300B output tubes. 3 stereo input pairs, Standard with remote volume control. Metallic blue chassis with clear coat finish. ZERO feedback design.

Nice piece, I heard one a couple of months back with a pair of floor model Triangles (don't remember which model).

The RWA sig30 is quite nice,   I tried it with my hawthornes ( just for 15 minutes) 

It sounded fine,  smooth .   A bit laid-back for my tastes .  I pre fer my trends ta-10 (with obbligatoos)  because it sounds a bit more lively.      It's not a  smooth and not as detailed (I think) but it does rock.

I like the Trends ta-10, but only has one input. Can you use theses as mono block with a preamp.

Thanks,

Go with the rebuilt Scott integrated but be prepared to engage in a learning experience. Excellent sound quality for the price. :thumb:

Ill be happy to take some for you...
Im just finishing up issue 10.  By Monday
Ill have a life again!  If you are interested in the amp,
just pm me with your email address and Ill get some
off to you.

I love the amp and had a local tech that I really trust
go over it, but I'm just never going to have time to
get to this!  I'd much rather it go to a good home
that will enjoy it than be a museum piece here!!

Well I think I will be going with the Trends TA10. I think I will use the volume control bypass and use a preamp to gain more inputs. I was also think I could get two TA10 and then have monoblocks with a pre amp. If I went with the monoblocks how would I wire it, would I need y splitters.

A used Audio Refinement Complete integrated (alpha)--should be had for under $550. A SS integrated with only 50 wpc, but very smooth and lively. Designed by YBA, with excellent parts for the $, made by Vincent.

the trends is quite nice,   get a tvc pre-amp and you'll have a really good setup.
