Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Again, it comes around to perferences

You are relating design and measured results to the sound you prefer -- that's a good thing in itself -- and very handy if you get to listen to a lot of equipment (which, unfortunately, I don't).

My Monarchy SM-70 Pros sounded better than the Class D Audio with some recordings (about 30%), but they happen to be the worst recordings (based on my long-standing evaluation of particular recordings). The Class D Audio is better on 70% AND they happen to be the best recordings.

The Monarchys were better than my former Bel Canto eVo2i (Tripath) amp for 70% of recordings but they were still the less-good recordings.

I am not looking for amps that sugar-coat my recordings.
