I have the rare Paoli - modded III's! Justly praised by TAS back in the day - and a favorite of HP! I like to use them with my Quad 57's and DCM Time Windows! Sound quality comparable to today's multi-kilobuck tube amps (paid $1600 for the pair).

Mine were owned by the OTL-Atmasphere guy and Chris Ossana of Audio Research,,so hopefully, they do sound good...they are in Altec Lansing style chasis. http://gallery.audioreview.com/data/audio//505/237750/dynaco1-med.jpg |
Hi: I have two pairs of Mk. IIIs, one pair I have had for over 20 years. They are fun to listen to and never die. Quad ESL 63s sound good with Dynas, and I have even driven Acoustats with them way back when. Otherwise, look for a nice clean box with a simple crossover, sane impedance curve and average sensitivity. You will do fine and be happy. Do NOT get the trade-up bug. Many have. Often they only end up spending more and having less--fun that is, he said from experience. Good luck, Jeffrey |
