Well despite the general doom and gloom about the demise of SB devices (nothwithstanding the community-funded thread) I'm still enjoying my little Squeezeboxen and waiting for used prices to settle down a bit so I can get some more. In the mean time, I recently bagged a brace of JBL Control One speakers in almost-new condition at a great price and I want to stick 'em on the end of a spare Squeezy. I'd forgotten how much I like these JBL beauties, but they do need a bit of welly to sing. I connected my little Topping TP-20 MKII but it runs out of steam just as the Control Ones start to boogie. The Topping TP-60 looks interesting but is much more expensive.
So - any suggestions for a small straight-forward minimalistic line-level amp offering - say - upwards of 30W RMS per channel into 8 ohms (and not at 10% THD!)? Happy to buy used gear. Budget - how about £150 sterling / 175 euros / $230 US dollars? There's plenty above that budget (e.g used Cyrus Straight Line, Nu-Force) but I figure it's a decent break point for used gear at least. I know I can get some old Rotel / Denon / Sansui / Teac / whatever stuff below that price but I'd like something physically small and all I want is an on-off switch and a volume control. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GRC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13846 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98115
