Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: The KEF LS-50 has landed

Frankly every speaker I've ever heard sounds better with good tube amps. Some good SS amps too of course. It's the power supply that counts and the LM 219IA has beastly transformers - I bought the amp after hearing them with ATC 100s which are far harder to drive than these KEF's.

Best sound I have heard from B&W was with an 11 watt SET and Magnepan has only sounded good to me with SE tubes. Sugden, Analog Domain, Technical Brain(when they work) and Pass Labs have been the better SS amps I've heard.
