Tube Amp for SDA's

Mike Reeter · January 2009

I need some "sound" advice on some common ground tube amps in the 35/50 wpc catagory to power some SDA's

Soooo many to choose from,but don't want to go to the expense of an A-1.

So,tubeheads,steer me in the right direction.

My budget is around 1k

I like this one...http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?ampstube&1237492263 but don't know if it's common ground or not.

Sent a question to the builder and have received no answers.

Thanks in advance,Mike

Mike, the TAD-60 is common ground, and a great sounding amp.

I looked at a Sonic Frontiers Power One amp. and according to a reply from them "Anthem" it was not a common ground amp. ?

George and I have both driven SDAs with the Anthem Amp One, without an AI-1. No issues and sonic bliss.

Oh,I'm not doubting your word,I just think it's strange that SF amps are not...a different co. and design?
