Speakers that work with Atma-sphere M60 amps.

A'goners,thanks for your help with the Preamp question. I currently am using Atma-sphere M60 MkII.2 amps with B&W CDM7SE speakers, sounds great to me! I keep hearing that I need to use speakers with higher sensitivity, and that don't dip below 8 ohms resistance. I would appreciate hearing what you think about good matches for these amps. My listening room is 18X12 and I listen in the nearfield. Thanks in advance.

Speakers I've heard work well with the Atma-Sphere M60 include models from Classic Audio Reproductions, Omega, Quad (the 57's), Avantgarde, and the new GedLee "Summa". Disclaimer - I peddle some of these. While there are others that I'm sure would work well, these are the ones I've heard and especially enjoyed with M60's.

ironically,it is my experience that elctrostatics have the transparency, speed, and detail necessary to reveal just how good otls' are. 'stats tend to be ineficient and have wicked impendace curves. once you hear that combination, youll be addicted. try it with a quad or a m/l aerius. you'll never go back.

I think Rushton made an excellent suggestion with the Merlins...

Very happy Merlin VSM-MM owner.

Avguygeorge, certainly various horns will fall into that category of OTL M-60 compatible. Note Duke's recommendation of the Avantgarde. Also, Cain & Cain, Zingali and others. It will usually come down to the design of the crossover.

THanks for all the info. I have heard that coincident and Merlins are good matches. ANyone have experience with Silverline speakers? Their impedance also matches.
