Best amplifier for CLX

I have a number
Blue circle BC 208 reference mono
Bakoon 100 watts
Bel canto ref mono 2

Audiovalve challenger
Audio space model 9
The bel canto pretty good
Audio space and Audiovalve better

So have you heard accuphase or Soulution with CLX ?

"What amp are you currently using--Andrew?"

Andrew, I use ME amplification, an Australian brand big on current and it's delivery, and highly biased into class A. They're used with my own Lightspeed Attenuator a passive preamp and a highly modded PCM1704K based CD player.

Here is a link, but you have to type it into the address bar for some reason, not copy and paste?

"So have you heard accuphase or Soulution with CLX ?"

Yes, my Soulution710, AccuphaseA200 and FMA 611 were lugged to friend's place to do testings with his CLXs. He personally own FMA 115, and have tested Soulution700 and Technical Brain amongst others at his place too.

C3800 Marantz Pre??

If you mean this, it may have been ok in it's day but to partner it with the stuff we are talking about here and these CLX speakers, it's way out of it's league.
The poor little signal from the source that he has would have to go through a gazillion dirty old contacts switches and sliders, no wonder he may have glare in the upper frequencies, not to mention old caps and out of spec components that would be in this old thing.
If you can read circuit diagrams (linked) just have a look at the crap the cdp signal has to go through before it gets to the output, not on with this hiend gear we are talking about.
This may well be the glare source that the OP is talking about.
