Hey gang. I currently own two Garage1217 amps; Ember and Polaris.
I have to admit I'm quite happy with these. That said I have been looking over the web for several months now for a sub $1100 amp. I would prefer tube.
Can any of you suggest some you have heard and enjoyed? I'm thinking maybe a little input is needed at this time.
I am attracted to amps that are not the norm but well loved by those that have used them. I'm okay with considering a major brand name though.
I'm not against SS amps and would consider them as well if they are recommended highly enough but I think i would prefer a nice tube amp. I know I prefer the Ember over the Polaris.
Ummm I will be using it with the LCD2 mainly and the Pogoda DAC.
I don't want a kit. No DIY for me.
Thanks!!
I could up the budget to around $1200-1300 if needed but would prefer to stay around $1k or so.
I'm also not a fan of buying china gear and then having to upgrade parts to get the quality I want.
