I can't imagine a speaker on the planet this amplifier won't drive. It has an established reputation as an excellent sounding power amp. Having said all that, I would find it very difficult to spend $15K for the Hagel H30 without hearing it driving the speakers I owned or was considering owning.
I agree Dan, the Hegel is a terrific value given its build quality, sound & power reserves. In saying that, I don't pay too much attention to the number of watts. To me the most important thing is the amplifier's synergy with the speakers, followed by its ability to properly control the speaker load in the real world.
