Has anyone heard the Joule Electra Stargates?

I saw the Stereophile story on them, they look interesting. I have Silverline Sonatas, they are fairly efficient so I don't need a whole lot of power. Opinions please, I am looking at these amps and would like any opinions before I take the plunge. Thanks!

I have the Stargates at home and run them on the Merlins. I also used to have a pair of Sonatas, I think that the Sonatas would sound outstanding with the Stargates. Please make sure you have good speaker cables, would recommend Zcable Passion speaker cables. All the best, Joe

Well, there is a pair of Stargates on auction for a cheap price, I may go for them then. Are you saying the amps NEED high-quality speaker cables to sound their best, or just that it helps? I ask as I am using Tara Prism 1000, which is OK for what it costs but not exactly "high-end" wire.

Joule and Merlins and Silverlines etc..., don't those guys usually recommend Cardas or something along those lines? Would Neutral Reference be good enough?
