I have a feeling many people would disagree with my choice of amplication for my Salons but I am totally content with my Bryston 7B-SST monblocks and the Bryston BP25 pre (especially with the new pre power supply, MPS-1).
I plug my amps directly into the wall with the Virtual Dynamics Signiture chords. I also use a VD Nite power chord on the pre-amp. The interconnects are all balanced and the 7B-SST amp gain is set to the lower of the 2 settings (very important with balanced interconnects) The sound is fatigue free, detailed, powerful, dynamic, and very emotionally satisfying. My muscial tastes are very eclectic.
I have also heard these speakers with expensise Mark Levinson amps and Halcro amps. My preferences in order were the Halcro, Bryston, and ML.
