Hi Philip

I have got the MX-R's at home ATM. Can't say I am a Ayre fan, or any ss amp however open to be convinced. Then again up to recently I was not a Wilson fan either. There are incredibly smooth and go loud effortlessly. They are a little reserved sounding currently. That will be effected by 3 things. They are brand new, I am running them SE and my cj pre amp has zero grain and is a little laid back.

I have cd on repeat on a low volume when not listening, so hopefully later this week they will open up a bit more. They should be around 100 hours by then.

I will never listen to the mono momentums as I cannot afford them. The stereo will be a stretch but very keen to try them. Again, they will be as new so not run in. Philip, I hope you are right in them being a turbo charge MX-R.

I just wonder whether they can drive and control my Maxx3's at LOUD volumes. Lower volumes will not be a problem.

Cheers

Cheers
