Vandersteen Model 7: has anyone heard?

Encouraging to read that the Vandersteens do well with Classical music. I was worried that this would be their Achille's heel. I heard them with classical briefly at the last RMAF and wasn't as impressed as I was the year before (with jazz).

How does the Model 7 handle Rock, Jazz and Blues music?

Had Black lable society rocken with an NAD amp while the
Sevans were breaking in like a live event.
Alice in chains bass line was insane the who Live at leads alblum Happy Jack will make you happy when you hear Kieth Moon's drum work.
Muddy Watters the Folk singer Big legged womans and Good morning little school girl never heard better.
yes I am a Vandy dealer but also like this music myself
What I hear is ((less speaker and more music)).

Don't the 7s really need solid state amps? Vs the 5A they have a lower impedence and are a bit less efficient.

What have people experienced?
Thanks, Terry

Solid state or hybrid works best although the 7 has been presented at the shows with Audio research amps. Pre amp can be either one.
