I think you would be happier with a solid state amp. Buddy has an Allnic tubed 50w class A monoblocks driving his Wilson Sasha's and the sound is simply fantastic. I have found the Edge product to sound great and comparable to other previously suggested options. Not sure what your budget is but really like what I hear about the new Constellation peformance line, Solution (i think they are making an integrated. Have a fair bit of experience with the BAT (balanced audio tech) and their 52SE and 600SE are very nice and all balanced-not in the price of some of the above or previously suggested. I am really suprised the dealer had that comment on the Ayre gear because all I have heard or experienced has been very positive.I am running an Edge solid state sig 1.1 pre and recently purchased an Allnic L-3000 tubed pre and the mix of powerfull solid state amp and tube pre is great and may be a nice combo with your wilsons.
Amp/Preamp combo for Wilson Sophia 3's
I've been thinking about upgrading my electronics (amp/preamp) from my current Ayre KX-5eMP and VX-5e. Been thinking of the Ayre KXR/MXR combination, but my dealer says there are better combinations for the money. I recently heard Wilson MAXX 3's w/Boulder electronics (2000 series I think) and was very impressed, so that's an option. Any others?
