I have a pair and am using a Dynaco ST-35 (restored and upgraded) with 0.01uF caps in series with the input jacks thereby eliminating all response beneath 80Hz. I use a REL sub for the LF material. Sounds great and plays very very well. Excellent amo\p for this speaker as long as it is modified as such.

Let me know if you have any questions. I also have a MC-252 and a VT-100 and prefer the ST-35.

I am using a Cary SLI-80 Signature with great success. (40WPC) Seems to be more than enough and the Cary is a fantabulous match with the Sonus.

(Also used a SS Electrocompaniet with them. (70WPC) This combo sounded very nice as well but just not Tubes.

Happy Holidays,

Thanks and keep sending more info.........just a note that this is the CONCERTO Books shelfs by Sonus Faber I am talking about!

Excellent matching was with Manley Stingray and Cary SLI 80.
cables: cardas cross ic and Nordost red dawn speaker cable.
(2 friends of mine with similar cabling). I guess 35-40 valve watts will do, also from other brands.

unless you mean concertinos ?
