I recommend a pair of Spread Spectrum Technology Ampzilla 2000's! The last and final design by the late James Bongiorno. There is an excellent review in The Sensible Sound!
Amp for Amphion Argon 3s
Looking for recommendations for solid state stereo (monoblocks if not too large/heavy) amp options. Budget is somewhere around 6k used/demo.
DAC/pre -- PS Audio DirectStream
Speakers -- Amphion Argon 3s
Operating principle: 2-way, passive radiator
Tweeter: 1" titanium
Mid / woofer: 6,5" aluminium
Crossover point: 1600 Hz Impedance:
8 Ω Sensitivity: 87 dB
Frequency response: 30 - 25.000 Hz +/- 6dB
Power recommendation: 20 - 150 W
Room - oddly shaped, 20' ceilings, about 22x20 main space. Typically listen at low volumes and priorities are a full, enveloping sound with high realism, a bit of oomph, great soundstage and instrument placement, pace, and not overpowering bass. Listen to jazz, vocal jazz, world, electronic, classical.
I've enjoyed (in a different system) the qualities of the Ayre AX-5 and AX-7e.
