I've heard my AE1 signatures on Roksan equipment and did not like it, to soft with no dynamics, (dynamics being a major strength of this speaker). I loved the AE1's on a Bryston 3bsst amp with a copland CTA 301 MkII tubed preamp, but didnt like the sound at all when Brystons BP25 preamp was used. Try to get a fast solid state amp, to maintain dynamics, with a neutral tubed preamp, to tame a bit of thinness or brightness that can be associated with this speaker, The tubed preamp will also produce the soundstaging that this speaker is capable of. You'll be in audio heaven.
