    I have one of those Audiosource amps and have been really pleased with it. Great price, too.

    Russ,

    What's your honest assessment of the Audiosource amps/pres.
    I know I've had excellent service from their 10" powered sub for about 10 years now. Never a glitch. I'm asking because I'm hoping to pick up a pair of SDA 2a's this weekend and might try them with the larger Audiosource amp, till I can afford a nice tube.

    Thanks,

    Noel

    Audiosource offers incredible bang for buck for entry level separates. Reliable, full featured, great sound, and affordable.

    And made by phoenix gold, which back in the early days of mobile audio, was a much respected brand. I'm not sure about that now though?

    PG bought Asource a couple years ago. I bought three of their Amp-100's on ebay, still the same quality / tone.

    PG also now owns Carver, Carver Digital, and Carver Pro lines.

    Well with props like those and from you, I would have to definitely consider one to driver the SDA's.

    Oh by the way I'm picking up a pair of Monitor 10b's on the way home tonight. I think I'm going to need grills for those. Anyone have a nice set they would let go of reasonably?

    Might be good to start another thread, and keep this one on track. Don't read me wrong, I appreciate the bumps to the top of the Flea Market - but lets get back on track here.

    Rotel amps are STILL here.

    :)

    Cheers,

    Hey Russ

    Will these amps "revitalized my soundstages?"
