Rockport Altair matching amplifier?

Kurt,
I heard these speakers driven by the VAC Phi 300.1 configured as mono blocks 300 watts per side. This is a very good pairing but it isn't up to the Absolare Passion level of performance/presentation in direct comparison. The Lamm push pull 100watt/channel amplifier wasn't close to the VAC/s sound when heard in the same system. Perhaps the hybrid Lamm is the better Lamm for the Altair. YMMV as always.
Charles,

Hi Jeff(Jwm),
Friendly suggestion, you should update your system pictures. You've had the Altair- Absolare combo for quite some time.

Can you integrate speakers like the Altairs into a 17x14 room? Seems like an awful lot of speaker for that space. I auditioned them in a room twice that size and they pressurized it pretty good with some big Boulder amps. I'd have to heavily consider Gryphon since it's an amp so highly regarded by the speaker's designer. Best of luck and I'm jealous.

Soix. Rockport make a big deal of using a certain "copycat" company's internal wiring; but it nowhere near the best available. Gotta ask "what does ultimate quality have to do with it?" And then ask "in addition to that?" Hmm.

This is not to say I don't have very high regard for Rockport....
