Experience with Tannoy Westminster Royal Gold Reference


I own these great looking speakers for a few months, and i am looking for views on its sound quality and people who have long experienced these speakers with different amps, electronics, and rooms, etc..
Based on my short experience, it seems that they are very easy on power quantity as being very efficient speakers, but require absolute quality watts to sound their best.
It feels as if they have infinite potential for sound quality and power, as long as you have what it takes to feed them, so how far can i, should i go with these in terms of associated equipment?
I hope that experienced audiophiles out there can help me realize the full potential on these beauties.
Thanks

I cannot comment on the Gryphon other than that I can see it is very expensive stuff at 60k for each channel and should better be superb! Regardless of the specific amp, I think the Westminster deserves that kind of power and current delivery. It can handle it ;-)
This is why personally I use the ASR Emitter II Exclusive (about 25k) with the Tannoy Westminster GR and I could not be happier. But I have not heard them with even "better" amps so who knows... Perhaps you should also consider a better source with more detail and less added distortion than the PS DS, like any of the dCS units ;-)
