Please share your success or not so successful stories with speaker pairings to your PS Audio Amp.

I recently purchased the Sprout100 and I am looking at Harbeth M30.1 or M30.2, or a few other monitors for an office space.

BHK pre feeding M1200’s that power the FR20 loudspeakers.  
I likey.  
This combo also worked well with Sonist Audio Concerto 4 loudspeakers.

I am using (4) PS Audio M1200’s to drive a pair of Apogee Divas with the DAX electronic crossover. One M1200 drives each speaker’s bass ribbon and one M1200 drives each speaker’s midrange ribbon and tweeter ribbon. I am quite happy with the sound I get with this combination.

My current speaker configuration is a pair of LRS+ mated with a stereo pair of REL T/5x subs driven by a pair of M700 amps. Have to agree with @Palouse , its a magical sound. What some may find odd is that I’m using a Strata Mk2 as a preamp.

P20 - DSD Mk2. - BHK Pre - BHK300s to Amphion Krypton3s. Lovely, especially since using Fidelium speaker cables.

Stellar Gold pre, M1200s, DSD Mk II, to FR10s, fed by Airlens. System puts me in the music. Highly responsive, revealing and responsive. I listen to a lot of jazz feel like I have the best seat in a jazz club.

M700s to Magneplanar 1.7s (2 REL Ti9s on the sides) through Iconoclast Series 2 TPC. Fed through Rogue Persius Magnum (tubes) by Jay’s CDT2Mk3 to Stellar Gold DAC via Tubulus Concentus I2S v.2 (w. PSA pinouts). Finally, my wife is drawn to the system and suggests turning it on when we have company!

M700’s, Magnepan 1.7i’s and a pair of JL Audio D110’s. Sublime is appropriate to describe the pairing.

Who has used ZU Audio speakers with PS Audio amps? Driving a pair of DW6’s Superfly’s with a pair of M700’s right now. Sounds pretty good. I figure the Strata Mk2 should drive them really well.

I own a pair of Zu Def IVs and drove them with a S-300 with good results although I now use a Rogue Pharaoh II amp which is a little better. I think the Zus like a little tube sound. The Strata would seem to be a sideways move from the 700 monos to me. The M1200s though would be interesting.

Or a refurbished BHK 250, also for some tube warmth.
