Narrowing on suitable amp for Martin Logan CLX

"I have heard all but Berning Quadrature"

How about starting out with your impressions of the various combos in question?

There is another thread going on about ML and tube amps whose posters might be interested in your findings. I am.

Thanks.

I have been asked to write a little about my expereinces with these amps

VTL Siegfried

Marco dynamics big! Tonally very accurate with huge soundstage and layering
So seemed to tick most of the boxes
But to me seemed to lack interest, personal opinion but after a while I found it difficult to get enthused

Goldmund Telos

Incredible dynamics
Amazing transparency
Best high frequencies I have ever heard
Total and absolute command over speaker
On the neutral side by far
Possibly a little clinical and "anal" but incredibly accurate

Soulution

Interesting combination transparency, accuracy and bloom
The only solid state amp othe than boulder I have heard with bloom
Tremendous base
Instruments a lot of meat on the bones

Handy as can configure to biamp

Accuphase

Lush and beautiful
Textured bass
Easily drive the speakers
Tone is to forefront rather than transparency, but its all there if you listen

Suppose music hits you more than the hifi
Less "impressive" more musical

CH precision

Like Goldmund but more musical, and tonally richer
Tends to the accuphase side of things but dynamics of the Goldmund

Hope that helps

Andrew

Andrew, thanks.
