Eggleston spkr owners - which SS or hybrid amp ...

I remember hearing a pair of Andra's powered by a VTL S80. Simply stunning.

Impossible to relate exactly what "nearly" means to you. You might be intrigued by the usual benefits of a solid state design for a time. Once bitten, you'll eventually return to the relaxed presentation of tubes. 'Sounds like tubes' is usually a positive, sounds like solid state is, well…

If you're looking for more deep bass there is no substitution for a modern powered sub with EQ.

Ayone use or heard Ayre amps with Eggys?

I've had the Rogue Medusa and Fountaine Signatures in my system at different times, and I'd really like to hear what they sound like together. I think the clean detail the Medusas provide up top combined with the Fountaine's refined treble would make a very nice combo along with the Rogue's expressive mids, fluid dynamics, 3D soundstaging and very tight bass. Would also like to pair them with something from Clayton or maybe a Plinius 103. Best of luck.

I use the hybrid (200 wpc) Lamm M2.1 monoblocks with my Andra II speakers. Great combination, IMHO.

(I can't imagine using anything else. Well, except the M2.2s, the M2.1's successor, which will happen when I get the money and a great deal falls into my lap.)
