Hey guys, need your thoughts/advice on which amp to get for the atrium and possibly a vc in the future. I have ordered the atrium, waiting eagerly but only have a ss amp(gsx mini). I have tried the auteur off a tube amp(auris euterpe) and found it to be a lot more enjoyable on tubes than ss(ss was more textured and detailed but didn't have the soul and as people say euphony of tubes). Now, i feel i need to pick up a tube amp. Do you guys feel an otl is absolutely needed for a zmf? I have a good deal on a cayin ha6a and i was thinking of getting that but unsure how it will pair with the atrium. I am also drawn towards the euterpe just because i have tried it and that small footprint is amazing (because i plan to use this as a bedside unit). Question here is basically, is an otl much better than other trafo coupled amps with zmf? If not, is the cayin ha6a a big step over the auris euterpe?
I know there are many other amps around but there are no dealers for ampsound, bottlehead etc etc available here and if i had to import it the duty would be insane.
