A question for Morricab!

Is the Spark III more tubier than the Dueundici that you use to own? Your old post rank Spark higher and you say Dueundici clean sounding which I prefer warmer and more juicy.

Thanks!

Ok I will look into Sun Audio as well. I'm not sure 3.5 watts is enough for my Klipsch Forte IVs.

Btw I checked out the Cayin Spark looks promising due to the use of the 6c33c output tube!
Ayon Spark

You will like the Ayon better then. It’s a bit warmer but still good resolution. Has punchier, deeper bass too.

Ok thanks Morricab! Btw no hiss or hum through speakers while on idle and no pop when turning amp off?

Hi Morricab!

I went on Ayon website and it looks like the Spark III is discontinued!

I just called USA tube audio the distributor. It's called Spark V now but price is now $6k!

How close is Dueundici? Is it still warm and airy sounding?

Thanks!

Yes, that’s why I mentioned used…new is out of your budget when it was available
