Re: valve amplifiers

mekr:

Take a look at Lyrita Audio in Delhi. He is an Indian manufacturer who makes tube based pre and power amplifiers. Some of our members are using his amps, and they speak very warmly about it.

there is also a detailed review of Lyrita by Kamal and you can read that at http://www.hifivision.com/reviews/14...o-n-delhi.html

Cheers

Cadence Canasya. The only valve amp I know off that uses 4 x 845's per monoblock. I have not had any personal experience with it, but friends who have say it's among the best valve amps in the world. And proudly Made in India!

Awedeophile, mekr has started two threads on the same topic, and there has been discussion on Cadence in the other thread.

Re: valve amplifiers

Funny you should mention that mekr. I'm on the lookout for a good hybrid design myself! Which amp do you currently own?

Venkatcr, Rethm speakers have been rated as world best , even i had a talk with viren of Lyrita,Delhi,i would love to hear these systems but they do not have any dealer in Mumbai,i have to go all the way to delhi or cochin to hear their systems,though on the web Lyrita audio seems to be having products similar looking to products from all over the world even speakers are like cain and cain.but then to auditioning them is very difficult.
cheers

Re: valve amplifiers

If anyone wishes to hear the Rethm Saadhana speakers in Mumbai, they are most welcome to come home. You could send me a mail. They are driven by 845 SET monoblocs

Re: valve amplifiers

Mekr, Plz ask Viren of Lyrita for contact details of an owner in Mumbai who would be willing to let you do an audition.
Hearing a system with your own ears & music is crucial.
