SF Olympica llls


Any chance the McIntosh MA5200 can satisfactorily drive these speakers? Any integrated amp recommendation in the $3000 to $5000 range would be welcomed. New or used.

Based on your last post you should just stick with the Mac and not worry about anything else.
FWIW, you should definitely audition whatever you have an interest in and can arrange.  For me, for example, Hegel sounds harsh and is weak on features.    I'm not overly impressed with their build quality, especially for the $$$.

Still, a good friend has an H360 hooked up with a pair of Martin Logan EFX ESLs and a Velodyne sub.  Not my kind of rig (I'm a vinyl head), but the system sounds very good indeed.

Regardless, a good dealer will give you an opportunity to try stuff in your rig in your environment to see what the best solution might be.  A-C definitely does this, and others do too.  Shop around - that's half the fun!
effischer - I'm the neophyte; who is A-C and do you think they may be in the sw florida market?

all others - maybe the Mc MA2275 would be a good fit. 75 tube watts with balance controls and a rc? 

Audio Classics is in Vestal NY, just down the road from Mc. Ryan Kilpatrick has all the answers. 8:30-5:00 M-F · 607-766-3501 x104  
I am not sure that the MA5200 has enough power to drive the SF Olympica llls ,I agree that the MA6700 is really the minimum for this speakers or other pre/power options of Mac gear .
As a Mac proudly owner stuff I don’t agree with audiotroy comment ,Mac has powerful & musical amplification that can drive properly any speakers on earth.
