Same valves in my Jadis. Is that Amp a KT88 version of Ivor's or can it take EL34's also.
Lovely amp can't see that hanging around long.Wadia looks very special also. Some lucky punter/s will get nice kit there.

All lovely bits of equipment. I don't think the amp will take EL34s - it'll be too high a bias I'd say.

Ah sad day Brian , i had listen to these on a visit to your place a while ago .. WOW ..
Its going to take some AV amp to even come close to this type of sound
Well best of luck with the AV set up .. assume your keeping that SVS Monster sub ? !!

Hi John
Thanks for your comments.The SVS PB13 Ultra is staying put,I'm going to build the AV system around it, so any suggestions as to matching centre channel,and front speaker's appreciated.

Hi Brian , im listening to a pair of Monitor Audio Apex 10s with the BK xls400 sub and they are quite something to listen to,I didnt have the space for Floor-standers or even stand mounts so needed something that was happy to sit on a shelf and was front ported ..Im driving them with a small temple audio 15W Mini amp and they sing along nicely , can only imagine a really good integrated would make them sound much better .
The Anthem receivers are supposed to be very good with HT and Music , i suppose it depends what type of budget
Id also take a look at the SVS range of speakers they look quite interesting
Also to consider would be to look at an amp with a pre out/processor function so you could use a separate Integrated to drive the fronts- i used an Arcam A85 with my AVR 200 to drive the fronts many moons ago so - im sure there are modern equivalents nowadays
Give me a shout if you would like to her the Monitor Audios ..
Paradigm Millenia is another one to look at , if your looking for room friendly set up ..
Theres a nice set of both over on AVFORUMS ..
Cheers
John
