Over the course of one year I auditioned, in my home, close to two dozen power amps in an attempt to find something with enough power to drive and, more importantly, to control the drivers in the Extrema. I could'nt find a single solid state amp capable of reproducing music ( none of the harmonic complexity of real music ). Only one power amp was capable of eliciting all that the Extremas can provide: the Melos MAT 180. 180 watts/channel pure triode.
