Hi Kleech,
Good to know that, I think series 3 are the better driven than series 1 and 2, first I run them with krell 600c on 600 watts class A, now with 15 watts and I prefer more quads. By the way 'afiyet olsun' that means 'have a nice drink and table' mostly said for raki drinkers that is our local drink usualy taken with small variety of aperatives like tapas, it remainded me of that :) cheers
they work very well with the Sophia 1 and 2's and I suspect they will do the same on the 3's! A big step up from the Quad II's.

It will probably be OK, but you still need try them in your system first, just to be sure. I have a pair of Cub's and drive them with a VAC 30/30 (32 watts/chnl). Its a great match. Still, the Sophia's are a bigger speaker and you may have to play it safe by going with a more powerful amp that the Nagra's.
