Joule LA 100 mkIII and Bat VK 60?

Just curious as to what everyone thinks about this combo and if anyone has ever used it? I have a pair of Merlin VSM MM's and a Joule LA 100 MKIII with a Berning EA-230 and a Sony SCD 555 ES cd player. Sounds good to me right now - but was wondering if it could be better. Can't afford the OTL amps - maybe a Berning that was priced right - but otherwise, not in my price range. Any thoughts are welcome

Thanks,
Brian

Hello Cooper, What is your question?
"Any thoughts are welcome" - I have none of interest to this you but one observation I can offer - it is well known that Merlin speakers and Joule-Electra power amp is match made in heaven. Both companies even demo their equipment together at CES, RMAF etc. You have Jou;e-Electra not pwer amp but...preamp and I do not believe its the same.

I agree with Pubul57
Perhaps, I would add, if merlin can be run with relatively low power - I like EL84 even more then EL34 and if you can get EL84 tube power amp with enough power it also can be magical experience - if you cannot go the OTL route, of course
All The Best
