I heard the Shearwaters with Classe seperates and they sounded great. I haven't heard them with the Classe integrated, but I think it would be worth a listen. It was a great match, sweet, dynamic, detailed and musical. You might also want to try the Sim Audio integrated. If you are interested in the Sim, email and I will let you know a dealer who will give you a good deal. Great reviews at Audioreview.com. I currrently am using a Sim W5 and Sim preamp with Meadowlark Heron i speakers. I love the combination.
Amp to match with Meadowlark Shearwater
Like to know what intergrated amps less than $2K anyone has tried with Meadowlark Shearwater Hot Rods especially for jazz(Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans) female vocals(Diana Krall) and classical piano and violin concertos. I currently am running them with a "mid-fi" receiver and the highs are a bit too bright. Mids and bass are beautiful. My room is 22x12x8 with about 50/50 hardwood floors and area rugs. Thanks.
