Have a loaned Job 225 and B1 Buffer at the moment, which at the levels I listen at sounds pretty good, bass is present. Default would be Croft 25r/7r perhaps.
Really disappointed with the response given the quality of this forum. I was expecting at least one âwhoâs that cunt in the cornerâ.
I must be still too newđ
Itâs ok we all knew that cunt was you

Having liked the Spendors with old Croft valve stuff (much nicer than the new Croft stuff), just look for the same amps surely?

yep, got my eyes peeled for a 4 power amp. The owner was a bit dismissive of the newer Croft, bit a purist type. The Icon LA4 seems a bit of a bargain.
OK, 500 lines on vintage planes, the merits of Lemon curd, your political stance and why you believe wonder bras are a form of false advertising.

i could be interested in building them
I have a VFET kit I want to build, so could possibly build F6 in parallel
wil PM thank you, trying to work out if I would need two F6 as monoâs to drive my s8e comfortably.
F6 should be good for 25 watts per channel. If that is enough, then dual psu for dual-mono in one box is an option.
F5 if you want more beans, of F5 turbo if you really need a lot more beans

Clearly old shite, but then plenty on here like this sort of stuff.
IMO - no. F5/6âs do subtle and texture very well with speakers that are sensitive and an easy load.
But S8eâs are not necessarily an easy load. Iâve heard them at their best with grunty amps, especially if you listen at low volumes.
Reading this, 24wpc from an F5 or F6 probably wouldnât cut it. They donât double into 4 ohms, so supplying that dip to 2.7 ohms at any decent volume, especially with the 86db sensitivity will probably take a bit more oompf.
100w F5 turbo monoblocks , Aleph 2 or Aleph 60 monoblocks would be my suggestion.

As an aside, I have an F5 you are more than welcome to try.
I may be interested in a borrow of that at some point.
