On SS I've had less success - Roksan Kandy and audiolab 8000a 'thin', no
real weight, although massive sound levels with the Roksan with no
compression or breaking up of the sound.

Really surprised you didn't think much of the Audiolab this is s till a
fine amp for most all applications, a second user one would be a good
buy for your hi-fi on a budget system.

Well they still drive my 30 odd year old Spendor BC1's fine:-))..

I agree Tony - I've had the 8000a 5 or 6 years and it's done a sterling job.
When i listened to the 42s in the shop we used a rega integrated amp and
they sounded fantastic. But for some reason it just didn't work with the
8000a when I got the 42s home. Very odd - I can only put it down to some
peculiarity of the 42s.
