Looking for input on Legacy Audio speakers purchase.

To the OP, do yourself a favor and call Audio Classics to set up a demo.  They carry the Legacy line as well as McIntosh and have them in stock. I have heard the Aeris with the wavelet with McIntosh 1.2KW mono blocks.  Part of my jaw is still on the floor at Audio Classics.  Simply amazing sound. 

Incredible speakers. You'd be shocked at how big and wonderful my Calibre XD's sound. The Areis w Wavelet would be mind blowing. Great company, great support and elite sound.

 I have heard the Aeris with the wavelet with McIntosh 1.2KW mono blocks.

To stereo5,
Did the Aeris with wavelet and Mac amps you listened to at Audio Classics have the built in bass amps?. I Know they have sold custom Aeris with no wavelet and no amps built in at Audio Classics.

I was thinking that the McIntosh MC611's would be overkill for the Aeris with built in amplification.

@wgapel,

I wasn’t aware they had powered and non powered versions.  I do know the Wavlet was used as the preamp and the speakers had speaker wires attached to them. The sound was so effortless.   I did notice the monoblocks meters would swing up to 600 watts at times. I have a MC302 amp it it is very powerful.  If you think you need less power, perhaps the new MC462 @ 450 watts per channel would be enough for them.  Although, I am a firm believer that you can never have too much power.
