citychief Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I currently have a Adcom GFA 5500 runing 4 KLF -20's for my front mains they sound a bit muddy, even with 2 ART 351 EQ's. Was wondering what a good modest tube amp whould be to improve these? I have a Adcom 535 runing my 2 KG 4's rears with no EQ. They sound great. I picked up the 2 ART's thinking I could tweak things a bit. Everyone that listens is blown away but I'm stilll dis apointed. I have a Behringer Ultra Curve Processor being used in my home studio with 4 Mackies increadable definition. Like nite and day with those. Anyone using or experimenting with these processors with home audio?

troutboy Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I have my KLF20's running with a tube pre and ss amp and couldn't be more happy with their sound. Every now and then i will switch them over to run the tube pre and a 2a3 amp and it is very nice. Check out the Bottlehead 2a3 kits if you are a builder. I think you will notice the most change switching to a tube pre as opposed to adding a tube amp. However, i do like the tube pre and 2a3 setup for classic jazz stuff.

Dennie Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Welcome Citychief, we're glad your here. Now, you have four Front speakers, two Subs, a center channel and two surrounds all running at once? I would suspect that it sounds muddy. How do two fronts running alone in stereo sound?
