I've never heard the aerial but read plenty of good things. Heard the Nola and liked them, but possibly a little too warm/lush for me, wasn't sure if it was the electronics or the speakers.
I have Aerial 7B's and I have Classe integrated amp. What I heard them with in my dealer's showroom was Ayre - liked that combination enough to take the Aerial's home with me.
