The right amplifier for Quad 12L Classic


Hello, I plan to get myself a quad 12L Classic. Now I don't know which amplifier to get. I have so far audiotioned and liked quite a few amplifiers, the most satisfying being the Exposure 2010. Would this amplifier pair up well with the Quad 12L Classic? The power rating for this amplifier is around 85W. Would quad 12l2 demand more power than what exposure 2010 offers? Iam also ok about getting a quad 11L Classic or the bigger 22L2 if that would give me what I want. I listen to jazz, vocals, classical.

No idea how the Exposure would match but quality watts matter more than "higher numbers" per se.
Dea Timru, my room is around the same size as the one you mentioned. However it is an odd shaped room with an open kitchen. A decent apartment is more expensive than a decent sound equipment around here. I hope the 12L would do well in my room. Iam actually looking at the 12L classic. Assuming that 12L classic is an improvement over the 12L...
I have played a lot with the L series and the the best match I ever came across was using Arcam to drive them. Never did experience Exposure, but I have read extremely good things about that gear.
As a former owner of 12Ls...I can attest to their strengths...very clean, deep bass from such a moderately sized enclosure...not sure if its the driver or port design...probably both...I did find the tweeter to be a bit "sharp" for my tastes...but I believe they have redesigned a new one since the original series...nice soundstaging...good imaging...I would opt for a "musical" amp vs a detailed one...one with a softer top end...many to choose from...I had an older Belles at the time...plenty of other options....
