Amp Options for Evolution Acoustics Speakers

i do use the darTZeel; but i think almost any amp from a 7 watt SET on up would work logistically since (1) it is an easy load, 93db, 6 ohm (2) the amp only needs to power above 100hz, and (3) the integral subwoofer amp is so neutral it will mimic the character of any type of amp for exceptional full requency coherence. obviously; a 7 watt amp would not be as appropriate in a large room as 50 or 100 watts, but i would expect it to sound great and be alive and dynamic in a medium sized room.

if i were making a list of non-darTZeel amps i would consider personally, it would include any Lamm, particularly the ML2.1, any Airtight, the AN Kegon, any Tenor, most Atmasphere's, any Wavac, and even some of the digital amps. there are likely a few solid state amps i should include but none come to mind at the moment.

the neurality and ease of driving allow the Evolution Acoustics to serve most any taste.

at some point i plan on adding some sort of SET to use on the Evolution's when the mood strikes me; but it seems i always have a use for dollars in other places....

I've heard them sound great with Spectral amp/pre/cdp, as well as Dartzeel. Pretty damn impressive speaker every time. Just about the only thing I wish I could afford to buy. Yeah, it would be fun to hear them with my Atma-Spheres...Cheers,

I also use the EA MM2 with the Dart amp, but have also tried them with Krell and ASR Emitter II amps and these speakers sound excellent with them as well. These speakers are extremely well designed and present an easy load to drive so that you can pick just about any amp to drive them... just pick your favorite flavor and go.

As much as I hear that these speakers don't need much power to drive them, I believe you need, certainly more than 100W, to play them load enough to enjoy Rock music. So I found Dartzeel Amp to run out of steam with in this situation. I am specifically interested in knowing what other SS Amps are good match with these speakers. It seems to me that one needs about 200W to get these speakers sound really good with Rock music. Any thoughts?

try the lamm 2.2 which is a hybrid amplifer with plenty of power....I used to own it and love it......mine had some quality control issue but the sound is yummy....I know have the dartzeel amplifier with the mm2 speakers and am suprised to hear you think it cannot play rock music well.....what cd player or tt are you using cuz you should be able to rock out real well....
