I've been following this thread for a bit as it caught my eye right from the start. When I had the 4345's set up last in June (they are still not set up at this point, home renovations continue here ) I was using two adcoms 5802's to drive them and it sounded fine, really clean. I have no problems with them and although they have more juice than I will ever need (not my main reason for purchasing them, I rarely got them past the half way point) I would have to agree wholeheartedly that the quality of the juice is more important than the quantity.
As a point of interest, I also have another amp that I really like set up with my 4313B's, and that is a Vincent SV-236. This is an Integrated Tube Amp/& solid state, the firts 10w are class A and the remaining 90 are ss.
I do not know what people think of them and frankly do not care as I am very fond of the quality of sound that comes out of my little speakers, the system sounds incredible.....nice and warm, crisp & clean an interesting concept altogether.
That said, maybe it would be interesting if we had another thread where people listed some of their favorite ams/systems :dont-know. For a while now I've been intruigued by the Mark Levinson stuff as well as the Aleph Pass units. I for one would be quite interested to hear what peoples personal experiences are with some of these components.
Lots of candy out there! that in itself could be a problem.
