Peaceful cargo - I’d love to hear a pair of Extremas these days, they were the speaker that got me into this hobby they were so good. The thing about the Extremas was how these needed a ton and I mean a ton of good clean solid state power behind them. The Extremas were notorious for being one of the most difficult speakers to drive when they were on the market. Many dealers would demo them with the big Krell KSA series or the big Classe CA 400 which put out a ton of current. I thing either choice would be ok but I may lean toward a big Bryston for these. The newer Sonus line including the Strads are a piece of cake to drive compared to the Extremas.
