It sounds good, but I recently heard these speakers driven by Manley Neo-Classic 250 monobloc amps. I must say the sound was "awesome". I strongly recommend you listen to the Manleys as well as the Wolcotts.

It did well, although I preferred my tube amps over it. Since then I have replaced those amps. The Innersound amplifier is designed to drive ESLs, obviously optimized for their own speakers but very capable of driving Sound Labs and other ESLs well. For this reason I would suggest auditioning the Innersound. Brian Walsh Essential Audio Barrington, Illinois
