RE: Altec Owners - What amplifier are you using?

I am using a Sonic Impact Super T with my Nineteens. I was skeptical, but thought Id give one a try. Now I can't bring myself to go back to any of my tube amps. Best sound I have ever gotten from my Nineteens. Bass as good as with any solid state amp I have tried. Mids are as good as with my Quicksilver horn monos. Highs as good as with my ASL Tulip 2A3 amp. Imaging is the best I have heard. If you are skeptical too, as many are, don't believe me. Try one. They are dirt cheap. The only downside is a slight hissing noise almost like tube rush that can just barely be heard from the listening position with no music present. Any negatives you have heard or read about this amp, or genre of amps, I feel is due to poor amp/speaker synergy. BTW, I am using a Quicksilver Full Function Preamp. This preamp/amp/speaker combination really like each other and play really well together in my listening room.
