Dynaudio C1 + Mcintosh 275 amp, do they match?

the C-1's will work with a 275, but to get them up and running they need power. I would recommend a pr of VTL 450's and a 5.5 pre amp.

I had these speakers in a second system, but only after I put them into my main listening room with 550 watts of tube power did i realize their exceptional potential.

good luck

I think that it might make a very nice pairing. Though the Dynaudio's are thought of as being "power hungry" I think that quality of electronics is more important. The C1 are not real efficient but the impedence curve does not have dramatic dips below 4 ohms. I have heard the 275 with my Special 25's (approx. 3db more sensitive) and it was nice without sense of needing more power. I really liked the VTL ST150 and have considered moving that in place of my belles 150A. I have also considered spending some time with the C1 or C2 in my home for a long audition and would consider the VTL 150 a great match, similar power to the Mac. 275.

i used the mc275 with passive gradient revolutions, and the hungry speakers did just fine...nearly as well as the mac 602...the 275 one of those rare products that more than deserves its reputation.
