Tube amps with Apogee Scintilla's your thoughts ?

I used a Classe DR3 VHC on my 1 ohm Apogee Scintilla. I don't hold too much hope for your VTL's

check the archives they have been written up more than once of the FEW but various amps that will survive them.

The DR3 was a classic amp for the Scintilla, I still regret not getting one when I was a Classe dealer in the old days. I still have a pair of Duetta Signatures but they are much easier to drive. I suspect that you will need solid state for them.

The classic amp for the 1 ohm Apogees according to friends that attended CES and heard them demoed in stores were the legendary Krell KSA 150, KSA 250, MDA 300, and MDA 500s. I've seen pictures with multiple 300s stacked up around the speakers. I doubt if even today any tube amp has enough current to drive them without some kind of compromise. If there is that would be one heck of a tube amp and I'm sure the tubes would have a very short life. Congrats on your Apogees. Too bad the unfortunate lawsuit by Magnepan shut them down. It is a shame that Magnepan didn't incorporate Apogees technology into their own speakers.
