RE: best matched amp for new (new to me) speakers

Posted by dbphd on March 20, 2017 at 10:55:23:
I used Proceed Amp 2s for years before switching to a Proceed HPA 2 and finally Parasound JC 1 monoblocks to drive a pair of KEF Reference 107/2s. I'm still using one of my Amp 2s (bought in the 80s from a Levinson dealer) in a secondary setup to drive a pair of LS50s while I await an Ayre VX-5 Twenty. Any harshness you hear should not be from the Proceed amp.
