    Re: What amplifers are you using with your Altec gear?

    Yamaha XP 1000 on the 416Bs

    NAD 326BEE on the 802s

    Nad 3020e for PHONO preamp(and the JBL 2404Hs if I ever hook them up).

    DCX2496 running 2-way

    DEQ2496 out of action - power supply croaked after local powerco did a dead line change-over.


    Put aside: SONY TA 4650 V-FET integrated amp - needs intermittent volume control attended to.

    -DIY JE Labs 2A3DX
    -DIY JE Labs Simple 45
    -Tubelab SE(6L6, EL34, KT66)
    -Tubelab SSE(300B)
    -Dynaco ST70 Orig

    The first two amps were designed by my friend je2a3 posting one person above me (Hey Joseph!)

    IMO, preamp matters. I have JE Labs FF preamp using 76 tubes and also an all DHT type 26 preamp. Both of the preamps I truly enjoy.

    Gee, I thought HiFi would feature more strongly.

    Everyone will likely cringe, but an old Harmon Kardon 630. Works, gets as loud as I need.
