Srajan, I've read several of your audio reviews on 6moons and greatly appreciate your insight. I am looking for an amplifier or monoblocks to go with my Kinki EX-P7 preamp. My speakers are Stirling Broadcast 3/6: a tiny bit on the warm side for me, looking to brighten up a tad. I see you have reviewed a few amps I have been considering, in particular:
Modwright KWA 100SE, Kinki EX-B7, Audiozen Lysios IGBT.
As far as sound preferences: I tend to favour high clarity/definition in the treble, quick bass and not overpowering in the midrange. I guess the obvious choice would be to match with the Kinki monoblocks, however, I don't mind changing things up a bit. Variety is good. Solid state or tube is good (whether those listed above or something different you might recommend). I'd really like to know your opinion and appreciate your time. Thanks again, Doug
For the specific sonic action you're after, the ModWright would be the wrong choice. It's not that kind of amp. I haven't heard the EX-B7 yet but they should arrive shortly. I'd think they would make the most natural mates on all fronts – financially, sonically and visually. My review will obviously say what I think. From my circle of acquaintances, the Job monos should also be on your list. Srajan
