Jason Bloom used Classe' amps designed by Dave Reich (the DR series: 6,7,8,9 and 10--the last called the "Ten" with an owner's manual stating it was a DR-10). The synergism was excellent with Apogees. BTW, Jason also used SYMO (Swiss) speaker cable exclusively; in fact, SYMO was sold almost exclusively by Apogee dealers specifically as a match for the speakers--I still use mine with a pair of Avalons. Jason also used Krell amps ocassionally, but was extremely partial to Dave's Classe' designs.
