2016 Finale 829B Transmitter Tube Speciale
“One morning, Jon Eben Field and Frank Fazzalari were over, and we listened to some orchestral music on Frank’s Coherent Audio Model 15’s, which were here for a week before going to Jon Eben’s place for review. After a while, I said, you guys really need to hear this 829B amp...holy mother of God!! Not only did we hear orchestras and kettle drums and lights, we also heard things from beyond the great beyond! We heard the music, there were plenty of "wow's", and I believe Frank said, he’d never heard his 15’s sound better. Soon my wife was calling from upstairs to see if everything was okay. I think it must have been the clatter of all those jaws dropping to the floor!”

"Speaking of Finale Audio, that company's Vivace Mini loudspeakers ($CDN3000/pair) sounded awesome—tactile, dynamically nuanced, and crazily involving ... has a sensitivity of 92dB and a nominal impedance of 16 ohms, and uses a 3" full-range driver—a descriptive to which I would normally add quotation marks, had I not heard them for myself."

“Without any music playing, I turned the volume pot all the way up and I was able to put my ear right next to the drivers without hearing any noise. Small wonder that I was able to hear so much inner detail in the music.”

“How does it sound? Well, it sounds like a tube amp! I’ve heard a lot of tube amps lately that, for whatever reason, don’t sound “tubey”. This is neither good nor bad, it just is. This amp, to me, sounds like what a good tube amp SHOULD sound like. Yes, it is warm. It is smooth... it is laid-back. But it is also amazingly clear and transparent. Almost holographic sounding. It doesn’t sound bloated or fuzzy. It really just plays music in the most un-fatiguing way. Never a hint of any unpleasant distortion at all. Match the amp up with a quality pre-amplifier (Finale makes these too), and you’ll have very wide, spacious imaging, and perfect left/right balance.
A solid A+ piece of sweet sounding audio art. ”
