Flux Mentor, ideally 2 in a stack for dual mono (3,000 with all maxed accessories). Single works well too, costs 1,300 usd. No taxes because itās from Ukraine. It has the benefit of black quiet background (great for instrumental separation), very detailed and impactful lows, detailed highs without sibilance, and large soundstage. As for the accessories, Flux is selling them at cost from expensive power cables to dual mono adapters. Heck even the remote control is a beast. That thing looks plastic but is secretly a solid metal weapon. The electric component is actually very slim and durable and the rest is reinforced steel.Hi everyone!
I've recently got my hands on a Susvara and, wow, I'm really blown away by how amazing it sounds.
But I've noticed something - when I switch albums, it feels like my SPL Xe isnāt quite up to the task of delivering those deep lows.
Iāve been diving into this thread, which is an impressive treasure trove of 13 years' worth of insights, and it seems like the WA33 or maybe the more budget-friendly Cayin HA300 MK2 could be great matches.
However, I'm a bit lost when it comes to solid state amps.
Hifimanās new Prelude caught my eye, but I havenāt had the chance to listen to it yet. And then there are options like Nimbus UA5 pro, Oor, and a few others Iām curious about.
Could you guys recommend three amps that pair well with the Susvara(price less than $8k)?
I mainly listen to classical music (about 90% of the time) and dabble in 50s to early 70s Jazz for the rest, with
preference of a refined sound and good soundstage.
Thanks a ton in advance for your help!
It is also very neutral. As in it doesnāt color your music into something itās not. Some like the coloring which is why there is such a big tube amp following. My Schiit MJ3 does just that (warmth, bass heavy, and very smooth), and does it well for the Susvara but you just donāt have the resolution that Flux has. You have detailed highs with the MJ3 (sounds like an expensive tube amp on top of that) but you lose the details on lows. Outside the Flux, youāll need 8K+ SS amps to get those detailed lows.
Flux had to close down production recent due to being bombed by Russian missiles but they will be open for business in about 3 weeks.
