Decware Amplifier for Sonus Farber Minima Amator
04/12/22 at 00:35:50  
Hello All!
I'm new to this forum and thinking of buying my first tube amplifier. I have a pair of Sonus Farber Minima Amator ii bookshelf speakers (4 ohm impedance; 87 db sensitivity). My listening room is small (9 by 13 feet) and my listening position is about 5 feet away from the speakers. I want to buy a Decware amplifier but I do not know which one would be the best choice. I appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!

Check out the handy Decware Amplifier Buying Guide:

https://www.decware.com/newsite/buyingguide.html

I would think you need at least 20 watts.

Welcome to the forum, Coqui.
How many sources of music would you feed into this amplifier? [Tape Player, Phonograph, etc]

Hello Brian,

I want to be able to connect a DAC and a phono amp. It is a small room and the Minima Amator ii are not meant to played really loud.

Thanks for your response!

Yesterday I had a GR-Research NX-Studios in my system. 88dB driven by my Torii MKIV (25watt) they sounded fantastic. Plenty of power in a ~17x23ft room with an open cavity on one side.

That is encouraging to hear. I'm thinking that the Torii Jr. might be a good match for my Minima Amator ii. I have heard that they sound really good with a tube amplifier. Thanks so much for your response!

I have a pair of sonus faber concerto's circa 2002 and a Torii Jr v2.  I might give it a try and let you know.
