Monoblock Aegirs


I am moving my old Vandersteen 2ce sig II out of the media room and setting up a 2 channel listening room in a pretty good size space in our front room, 25’ x 25’ with a large adjoining dinning room and 10’ ceilings. I have been known to be asked to turn it down by the wife. I was looking at getting a Cambridge Audio CXN V2 for streaming duties connected to a Schiit Freya + preamp and I am debating on amplification. Curious if anyone has hooked up a pair of monoblock Aegirs to the Sig II’s and how well they drove them on the bottom end? Or am I better off with the Vidar?
Thanks

Also I run Treo CT in a 16 x 35’ room with a 40 wpc NAIM SS poweramp.....

I am obsessed with the LTA integrated amps, specifically their 40 watt version. All their products get superb reviews, but I worry that it won’t have the oomph to drive my Vandy 2CE SigIII’s. Maybe it would? Small room (12x15), typically don’t listen above 85db. I am running an Odyssey Khartago now (120 wpc) which has more than enough power. 60 wpc or maybe less should be okay.
