Yes I tried. Better response, but still not thrilling me. I think the 1979 amp had its limits and the pairing with A&E wasn't a nice marriage for my ears. I like those speakers, that's why I sold the amp. GM

I sold the Nikko. Checking some amps on second hand market I found 4 ones I am interested in: REGA Brio R AURA VA 100 DENON PMA 1500 DENON PMA 1560 I listened to 3 of them (Rega, Aura and 1500) and I like the Aura for its warm detailed sound (and the price...... 200 €!), but Rega too is...
