You might have to do some experimenting. I had a pair of SL3's. They should be a bit more difficult to drive than the Vista's. In a medium sized room, listening at normal volumes, I was able to get away with my VAC 30 30 which is rated at 32w /ch with no problems at all. I will say, though, that the VAC is very clean and all but refuses to distort. I would give the NAD a shot first, and use that as a reference if you do decide to upgrade.
advice on powering my martin logan vistas
hi,
i am getting martin logan vistas and am hoping that my nad c272 will be enough power but wanted to some opinions. the martin logans do not have an internal amp for the woofer and the nad puts out 150 into both 4 and 8 ohms. I am wondering if the 150 is enough or if i should get another and bridge them. Any thoughts, and thanks, i sometimes like to play loud and all genres.
