Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

I believe that you may need/want more power

I owned Special 25s for 3 years. Have also owned Contour 1.8s and Audience 52SEs. In my experince, I needed at least 50 wpc to "move some air around" with Dynaudios. These were also all SS watts. The 25s sounded "best" with an amp that could really take control. Otherwise, Dyns can sound lean and clinical. I like your approach with a SS amp and tube pre.

Why do you want a tube amp?
What is your budget?
What are your goals?

But, it all depends on your music tastes and volume needs.

Some great combos with Dynaudio could be:

1. Sim Audio amp
2. Ayre amp
3. Naim!
4. Rogue Audio (tubes)
5. Belles!!

If you want to go tubes, then I suggest trying something with more balls like Audio Research.
