"Light Loading" Amps - Music Refence and others... yes Paul, lite loaded for sure....they are a wonderful combo w/the RM10.

PrimaLuna dialogue 2 or Caryaudio SLI80 4ML Summit imo either amp isn't going to have enough brass to drive your ML's to max potential. i've owned SL-3's paired w/classe ca 200 & pass x250 which were nice & currently own sli-80 w/tube friendly spkrs. | |
