I had the Scala v1 for many years powered by the Ayre MX-R and more recently the upgraded Twenty.
The main point that you should be aware of is that the Scala has a bright/rougher tweeter so you need to have a setup that doesn’t accentuate the highs. The Ayre isn’t the sweetest up top and I ended up having to shelve the tweeter down - took away some air and sparkle but not much choice given the normal tweeter setting was typically too bright for my taste.
