Amps for WP7

Just wanted to take a poll on what amplification WP7 owners are currently using. I'm in the process of switching from a moderately powered SET (23 WPC) to something more powerful (not necessarily SET).

Thanks.

Sorry, I was going to recommend the Lamm 18watt single ended amp. Oh well. Sure sounded great with the WP7's at CES a couple years ago.

McIntosh MC402 (with C42 preamp). I also tried a Jeff Rowland Concentra II integrated but it was not a good pairing, the Mac gear was/is far better.

I've ran a BAT VK75SE will wonderful sound for several years. Just added a 2nd VK75SE, converted both to mono. WOW.

I have WP 6's.

What's the rest of your system? Matching is important....

...oops, I incorrectly said C42 preamp instead of C46.

I owned them for two years and put allot of gear with them.
Really depends on the sound you want out of them.

I have a fairly large room, best set-up combo that I had was McIntosh 501 mono blocks, Audio Research Ref3 pre and ARC Ref cd7.

I did try my ARC Ref300's but lacked in bass control.
