Amp for EgglestonWorks Speakers?


Curious as to what amps you're using with your Eggys? Which model Eggy and room size?

Thank you for your responses. These speakers are not discussed much. I am happy with my 250wpc hybrid (AVA Fet Valve Ultra) but always wonder how they'd sound with other types of amps. I've only had hybrids and I don't have much opportunity to experience other set ups, and thus wonder what/if I'm missing anything. So Pass, Spectron, all tubes, battery powered, BAT, and Mac all intrigue me. I figured if I asked what folks are using they must obviously like what they have and this helps direct my curious pursuits whenever there is an opportunity to try something different - helps focus my trials to amps which work well with these speakers.
Any others? I think these speakers have just he right amount of bite and smoothness, which i why I like the so. Great for all kinds of music, even less than stellar recordings - not that they'll improve a poor recording, just allow you to listen to them more than other speakers I've heard.
1markr - I have a pair of ACI 65Hz in-line filters I have not yet tried. If I use them I'll not require so much power then? Any idea how much of a load is relieved from the speakers using 65Hz filters? Is it possible I could get away with 70wpc tube power then?
1markr - Those must be some awesome amps. I'd love to try a pair of those but cost dictates otherwise for me. I was thinking about a pair of VAC Auricle Musicbloc 70's - also tube pp - as a used pair is currently for sale in my area. Not sure how they'd stack up.
