ARC Amp for ProAc Response 2.5?

I just purchased the Jeff Rowland Concentra Integrated amplifier to match my ProAc 2.5 Speakers. I listened and listened and decided I liked the Concentra. To my ears, the music just appeared and the equipment vanished. I suggest you try a listen your self. It sounds excellent on all types of music. Cheers.......

I have the ProAc 2.5's paired with CJ Premiere 12 amps and love the sound. Its very smooth and sweet, and produces a huge, well defined soundstage. The system does lean a little to the warm side (my preference), but not enough to take away from the speaker's natural liveliness. A great match for orchestral, jazz and folk music (my tastes), adequate for rock and techno. These speakers have the ability to sound good with a variety of electronics, although the best reviews I've seen have been with tube components. They tend to take on the characteristics of the amp driving them and do a very good job of matching that sound. You'll find that they match up well with AR electronics (where they are brighter and more aggressive) as well as CJ (as described above). Your tastes will determine which one's work the best for you. Try them with CJ amps and I think you'll find that they're an outstanding match, especially with the type of music you like. Enjoy...

proac recommends the solid-state arc 100.2's, combined w/the arc ls-16 or ls-25 toobed preamps... ask proac about yer current stuff & see what *they* say...

Several years ago I had ProAc 2.5 experience with the ARC 100.2 and Anthem Statement A5. The 100.2 sounded more musical than the A5 at about half the power rating (ARC compared to A5) at the same SPL. Man should not listen by specs alone.
