Amp for Martin logan CLS Originals

Up until now I have only considered solid state gear. Based on your feedback I might want to check out 100+ watt Audio Research tube. What do you guys think of the rogue M120 Mono blocks?

Great suggestions in terms of tubes, however on the solid state side anyone with good results/suggestions?

Ultimately I would prefer to go solid.

Hello Dfelkai,

I would look into either Pass or BAT if you're thinking solid-state. Good luck and enjoy the search.

best,
Tom

Dfelkai,

You may try Spectron amps too as highly recommended by a friend who uses them to drive Analysis Audio panels with effortless authority and neutrality.

I agree that tubes are ideal.

If you must use solid state a used Innersound amp or new Sanders Sound amp will work well. They are designed to work with electrostats.

Please go to my system page and, specifically, read the short history of my system (starting in 1990 when I bought the CLS II's (now IIz).

Since I strongly disagree with about 80% of the previous posts' contents, I'd rather not add to them; however if you have specific questions about my system's evolution, my choices, etc, I'd be happy to respond -- either here or offline.
