Amplifier for Audio Physics Virgo II


Virgo II Owners, what amplifier would you recommend to drive the Virgo II? I recently bought a pair and my Pathos Classic One doesn't seems to have enough juice to open them up. I am hoping to spend less than 2K on the amp or intregrated amp in the used market.

Your recommendation is greatly appreciated. The music I like are voices, jazz, and blues.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for all the wonderful recommendations. I am leaning towards SS.

I am actually a little surprised that Aleph 3 can drive them. When you say bi-amp, do you mean mono-block setup, one Aleph 3 for each speaker? Actually, the Aleph 5 (60Wpc) did came across my mind, wonder if anyone have hear that setup. I had both amps before, and if my memory serves me right, they sounded wonderfull but a little 'thin' with my Thiels.

Fjn04, I am not quite sure what kind of tweeter it has. I took a look, looks like soft dome but I can't be sure. Maybe others can clarify.
