I am looking for the best power to my new Extremas. I use PSAudio PWDII and a Macintosh c2200 pre. I would like to get the most neutral and detailed sound I tried a few big "names" (Krell, ML, Manley) - no success. Please let me know your advice.
Years ago (aound 1991 or so) I heard the Extrema's powered by a big Gryphon class A amplifier, and it was a really good match. Hopefully other owners of the speakers will chime in. Good luck in your quest.
I know someone who owns Extremas and uses Pass Labs (also big SS amps operating largely in Class A). I also know someone who uses Burmester.
I used to own SF Guarneris and Stradivaris...and agree with Rcprince. I owned them with Gryphon Antileon.
That said, the Extrema is quite different from Antileon...Why did you not like Krell/ML? That might help us understand what you are looking for (at least by understand what you were missing or what you objected to in their sound).
