    Hello I'm also new here. I have a post a bit further up, from last week. Was wondering what advice are you looking for? I thought it might be a good idea to ask so the experts get in on it and help. The people here are fantastic. They helped me out in my search to pair an amp. I couldn't be...

    New member introduction, looking for the right amp.

    I read a bit about it through the amp section here. I was actually on the hunt for a used one since the comments where really positive. However it wasn't easy to come by here in Germany. Compared to other Amps I mean. So I bought the Hegel H160 used for 1500euros about $1800US. It's 2 years old...

    Seems to have paired So you were right. I got a Hegel H160 in great shape. It's rated at 150w into 8Ohms. The damping factor is apparently high, so they say. And it seems to have paired well. I'm new to hi fi since my job has been based around PA equipment. One thing I noticed is it got the...

    The Elekit, I was wondering about that! I've heard quite a bit about those tubes you've mentioned, good things that is. But I have no idea really. I'd love to go with a tube set up, but like I said, no clue really. I thought, better start simple and add tubes "definitely" in the future! That S8...

    Yeah its enticing to say the least. I have to find a way to try that. But in the future, due to Covid restrictions in Germany at the moment. I was about to try out a Unison Research S8. And the lockdown was a day too early for me to hear it. Bummed out about that. So a tube integrated or I guess...

    Right, I see. I like it loud too once in a while, so big is better. Plus I wouldn't want the amp to struggling too much in these situations (party). So the 4b, which I've heard them play with, sounded fantastic together. Funny how such an ugly thing can sing a melody to bring someone to tears.

    Good to know I don't have to go Overkill. I was wondering about the Lexicon amplifiers. On some of the Lexicon adds, I saw "just like Bryston". Thanks a lot. A great help to have somewhere to begin. I must admit, I'm enjoying the hunt part of all this. Cheers

    Hello everyone, really happy to be here. Just got used EM ESL's (and I am thrilled) about 5 days ago. Ever since, I've been looking for a amplifier. I live in Germany so luckily the used market has a lot to offer. Only problem is, I'm a super noob. I've read that these speakers need an Amp that...
