Why do you think that a SET is a perfect choice for a ribbon? ...

Yes, I know the mystique about SETs. And that's one of the reasons why people choose tube amps to drive Maggies. However, I have read posts here which say that tube amps (not sure whether they're SETs or P-P) don't control ribbons as well as ss amps.

So maybe you need to research ss amps which can drive a 2ohm load? As I said, Hugh Dean's NAKSA 80 (down-rated slightly by having a lower DC rail - so it produces, say, 60w into 8 ohms and not 80w) can drive a 2 ohm load well. I'm sure there must be others.


Regards,

Andy
