driving Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations?


I am considering driving these speakers with a high quality integrated amp such as the Luxman 590A11 (pure class A, 30 wpc) or the Luxman 509u (class AB, 120 wpc).

Has anyone been happy with Luxman or other integrated amps such as Pass etc driving the Parsifal Ovations?

Regards,

great way of sharing all Verity experiences.
30 watts may all be what one needs, it's not about the watts it's about control and dominance and capability. aka powersupply.
Prime example the 30 watt Accuphase Class A model. small amp, low watts, big performance.

another example: the LAMM ML2.1 SET.
it has 18 watts no more, but one of the best powersupplies and output transformers money can buy.
those 18 LAMM watts sound very dominant and controlled.
that's what you pay for ;-)

watts = SPL's.
control = powersupply.

so either Solid State and Tubes can have low wattage and still sound extremely powerfull.
it's not howmuch, but how you do it.
