[QUOTE="Bravick, post: 1107988, member: 3649"] As a fellow long time Sundara owner, my advice is as follows: 1. You will only hear their true potential after 200 hours of playing time. 2. They need high current amplification to sound their best. They will sound "nice" on a lot of amps, but you have not heard what they can do without power. Yes, even at the low levels I listen at. It's about control, not outright volume. Most OTL amps need not apply. Most small OTL's sound medeocre with Sundara's. Only the Little Dot 6+ came very close to top class SS amp. Otl's simply don't have the current, with rare exceptions. So far hybrid tube amps with ss output, and full ss amps have performed the best. Match your Sundara's well, and you will be rewarded with a sublime performance. Regards, G [/QUOTE]
