Hi Michael, as you said in your PM to me.

As you can see they have a min of 3ohms at 120hz but the -phase angle is not too bad at -20’. Then they have a large -phase angle -45’ at 65-80hz but the impedance there is 4ohms.
So the McIntosh 452 should be ok on the 4ohm tap.
If you want the very best out of the bass between 60hz to say 120hz then the Parasound JC1’s should be even better, and better again the upgraded JC1+ that was just released, has even more of what made the JC1 so good.
And use both models with the higher 25w Class-A bias switch on, soooooo sweet.

"I own the Dynaudio Evidence Temptations and use a McIntosh 452 amp. They sound good but I’m guessing sonething like the JC 1s that you like might be better. What is your opinion on the Mc I use? I really don’t know about phase angle etc. Any opinion would be appreciated. Thanks"As for your great speakers, these are perhaps one of the Dynaudio’s that don’t "maybe" need such a bulldog of an amp to get them going.
