Amp Options for Evolution Acoustics Speakers

i do use the darTZeel; but i think almost any amp from a 7 watt SET on up would work logistically since (1) it is an easy load, 93db, 6 ohm (2) the amp only needs to power above 100hz, and (3) the integral subwoofer amp is so neutral it will mimic the character of any type of amp for exceptional full requency coherence. obviously; a 7 watt amp would not be as appropriate in a large room as 50 or 100 watts, but i would expect it to sound great and be alive and dynamic in a medium sized room.

if i were making a list of non-darTZeel amps i would consider personally, it would include any Lamm, particularly the ML2.1, any Airtight, the AN Kegon, any Tenor, most Atmasphere's, any Wavac, and even some of the digital amps. there are likely a few solid state amps i should include but none come to mind at the moment.

the neurality and ease of driving allow the Evolution Acoustics to serve most any taste.

at some point i plan on adding some sort of SET to use on the Evolution's when the mood strikes me; but it seems i always have a use for dollars in other places....

Mikeaudio, those of us with the MM3/MM2/dart are curious about your comment;

As much as I hear that these speakers don't need much power to drive them, I believe you need, certainly more than 100W, to play them load enough to enjoy Rock music. So I found Dartzeel Amp to run out of steam with in this situation

maybe describe the music and some specifics about what did or did not happen. i'd love to try that same music in my very large, well damped room and see what happens. i can tell you i've played AC/CD, Led Zep and lots of other very agressive rock at concert volume levels in my room for large groups of people and the whole room was alive and real. the dart just rolled along.

i can get the 'eyes' on my dart to 'blink' very very occasionally when i'm doing 'warp 9' at about 110db on torture test tracks......but never in any actual musical situation. and even then; there is no hardness or edgyness evident.

i would agree that having more headroom might be beneficial very occasionally; but not at the expense of losing all the other unique attributes the dart alone brings. but maybe that's just me.....others may choose many more megawatts and less refinement.
