Price Paid:
$0.00 Summary:
I recently purchased this Amp thinking that going back to tubes would be a nice fit with the speakers I am now using. I was using a Classe CAP 150 integrated. I have owned lots of solid state integrateds and seperates through the years from Classe, Bryston, Moon, Creek, Harmon Kardon etc. My only experience with tubes has been with Prima Luna. I owned a Prologue 3 preamp and prologue 7 monoblocks for about a year. With the Primaluna Pre and power combo I was not that successful. I had some JM lab electra 936 speakers at the time that may have not been a good match even though on paper there supposed to be pretty efficient. I knew I was listening to tubes but the sound was too warm and lazy in dynamics. I tryed different tubes and cables but could not get it dialed in to be dynamic and lively. Any how, I was right to think that tubes would be good with my current set up. This Grant fidelity amp sounds amazing. At a $1000.00 it really has blown away my expectations. I can easily say that my system sounds the best it ever has. Depth of sound stage, air, clarity, seperation., no grain. All the cliche buss word come to mind. This to me is quite something since I have owned alot of peices that were alot more money. If you are looking for a preamp under $3500.00 I highly reccommend This piece in terms of sound quality. The movement of chinese manufacturing works for me when you can get this type of gear new at less than used prices on other gear that doesn't sound as good. I am Jamo1 on Audiogon And Canuck Audiomart
