SET amp owners thread

I think that’s why I really like it. It’s really refined and not over the top as a space. Warm, elegant and coherent and not at all overstated. Nothing is out of place and the scale is just right. From a designers perspective I find it a beautiful space.
I really appreciate the compliment; thank you.
 
And Sun audio vt25 amp, some crazy 1.2 watts, used price under 2k

When I visited Primary Control he was using a tweaked Sun Audio (kit) amp driving some WvL speakers. Sounded pretty great. (Plus diy ob sub etc...)

I had visited him a couple of years ago, and then heard the two smaller WvL again at in Bulgaria

WvL used to use a lot of Altec woofers for field coil before doing his own.
 

Congratulations. You always set the bar for design aesthetics - I love the finish you chose for your speakers. The turntable and amps are gorgeous against the deep red timber layered backdrop. Are the wooden matching units to left and right crossover boxes?

Thank you.
Those 4 boxes are subwoofers. They aren't playing in the video. I still need to play around with positioning them in my new set up. I wanted to find the right position for my main speakers first. I wish they sounded their best in their current position because I like the look of them there and they hide lots of wires.

Yes, I now have the speakers toed-in such that I can just barely see the woofer units' inner side panels.
The speakers are 2.5m apart and I'm 2.5m from each one.
With horns, being quite a bit more directional, toe-in is very important. With my panels in the past I would have them nearly straight ahead. Horns...nope it loses focus and jump (at least with my speakers).
 
Really like the Decca....

Yeah it's excellent, much better than his koetsu jade diamond. He also has the urushi, a few SPU, and FR carts on his FR 66s
 
Wish you had played both videos from the same point so that the bass response could be heard in the second......
As it is....on my computer speakers playback, the first recording sounds too 'hot' on the cymbals and treble energy.
