for the VP-300B


The Dareds are truily an amazing pair of tube amps. I also have a pair of quick silver kt88 amps, and I really prefer these. As for the wattage, you could not imagine how much sound comes from a 7 watt/ch amp!! My speakers are apair of Totem Hawks, with a sensitivity of around 87. The actual sound is spooky. Voice sounds so real you have to look up to realize no one is there! There is so little distortion even at levels that begin sounding annoying to your ears. This can be a real bargain on audiogon. Try and find something comparable for the price, no way!


Product Weakness: none
Product Strengths: Overall warm sound, great looks
