Ah, you touch a chord here. I owned an early Ampzilla and eventually got the Thaedra to match. This would be about 1979 or so as I recall. I was auditioning a new Sony Mos Fet amp at a dealer and asked if he would play the Ampzilla for me. Wow, the sound stage just dropped in and filled the space betwwen the speakers with music. I used the combo with Klipschorn clones and later Maggie Mg1's.
The word from TAS at the time was that you wanted two sons in mono to better the Ampzilla in all ways (Musicallity especially as I remember). The Son was very desirable at that time.
Are they surpassed today? God, I would only hope so. Are they worth hooking up? Since you already own them, absolutley!!!!!!!!
I only wish I had a volume control like the Thaedra's. What a joy to turn that billet knob and it's detented resistors. If just for the feel.
Oh, and belicve it, in their day they were truly hi-fi!
