Pathos logos strong enough to drive winds?

Auditioned Pathos with my Helicon 300s. I listen to percussion and the amp
was not dynamic enough for me.

Musical Fidelity A1008

If you can go without a hybrid you may want to consider trying the Wyred 4 Sound integrated; plenty of power and current there. In the price range of the Logos too.

I find this frustrating because when i ask the dealers how the Pathos performs with the winds they all tell me that its more then adequate to drive the winds i have right now. I dont necessairely want a hybrid but i was considering it because of the reputation that pathos has. I have found a bryston bp 26 with dac at a very good price and would just need to find a good deal on a 4b sst and i think i would be happy having already heard the 4b sst on my system but wasnt hooked up on the bp 26 and can just imagine how much better it would be.

I feel your pain. This can be a very frustrating (hobby, passion, obsession, love affair? I mean of course the love of music)... The expense involved when you make a mistake can make this experience all the more frustrating. Personally I've made my share of mistakes. You can always buy the Logos (negotiate the best price you can) and resell it possibly at very little loss if it does not drive the Winds well.

Just be careful when dealing with dealers...I'm sure most of them are very honest people but at the end of the day they need to sell. If you ask speaker dealer (who doesn't carry amps) what amp to use, you might get honest recommendation as to which way to go. You ask an amp dealer, if the amp they have are good enough for your speakers, 99% of time you'll get "yes" answer...BTW, I've never heard Winds speakers, but heard great things about them, and yes, that they need a lot of power...are they more on a warm side or cold? That should determine which amp to buy. If they're fairly cold, I'm sure McIntosh, Pass Labs 150, and host of others might work, if they're a bit too warm, Simaudio Moon Evolution i-7, certain Musical Fidelity and others might work too...
