for my adolescent years and short lived. It resolutely taught me that THD was a largely irrelevant metric.
Two years later, I got back on track with a Julius Siknius designed Audire One power amp now driving MG-IIs. That was when Frank Van Alstine entered the market with his Dyna mods. I replaced the 11 with his FET-5 and took a page from the Double Dyna and boosted the power supply of the Audire. I added another 60,000 uF to the stock 20,000 uF along with a new bridge. That change improved transparency and dynamic kick.
While that was a good amp, the Acoustat X speakers that replaced the Maggies had their own servo amps which I used for several years. Next amp purchase was a Threshold Stasis 3 to drive Acoustat 2+2s that only recently did I part with.
For the past 15 years, I've been quite happy using VTL MB-450 mono amps to drive the stats. A new S-400 or Series III version of my current amps would be nice though!
