I was considering the MC601's or the Bryston 28B SST2's. Anyone with experience with these amp/speaker combinations? Other powerful amps that have been found to be good matches? Thanks, my friends!
Having owned those speakers, I would go with 601's or preferably 1.2kw's. They gobble up power like no other speaker I've ever owned (even more than my current speakers). The Bryston amps are excellent too....but unless your room is small, go for sheer power the 3.7's crave....go for the 1.2kw's. Ivan owns both....maybe he can advise you which is best for the 3.7's.
