Amp Pairing for Aerial Acoustics 6Ts.


I now have a pair of Aerial Acoustic 6Ts in my living room. I'll include the specs below.

I do not know where to begin with matching these with an amp or an integrated. I've asked this question several times in other forums but probably too many with constraints. Thought I'd get some opinions in the Speakers forum.


Here is the intended use: Secondary system in my living room for casual fairly low volume listening via Sonos/Amazon Music. It will be used occasionally. Would prefer a small footprint. Simplicity would be nice. It will have no other inputs. Integrated probably makes the most sense.  It will have to integrate with Sonos somehow. I do have a Connect Gen2. Would not need a DAC unless the DAC as significantly better than the Sonos Connect DAC.


Considered so far: Sonos Amp. PS Audio Sprout100.

Would like to hear a range of opinions for units that would pair well with these really nice speakers. For now, let's say the budget is open (it is not) but I am willing to buy used.

Sorry for posing this question so many times and thanks for your input.

Update: After considering all the options I've taken the cheapest but in some ways the most elegant approach. I've ordered the Sonos Amp.

The dang things are hard to get hold of these days as everyone is sold out. But, I've got one ordered and it should arrive later this week.

In some ways it seems like a disappointing choice for these speakers yet it still makes sense for my needs. The amp will be invisible. Does not run all that hot. Has decent class D power. Requires only a power cord and two speaker cables (which I plan to make from Canare 4S11 cable).


And having listened to these speakers through various sources I am now of the opinion that while these speakers have great potential when driven properly, they sound quite good with anything with half decent power. I think it is a tribute to these speakers which seem to have an undeserved reputation for being demanding. I think they may be a little more well rounded than their reputation.

I'll review the Sonos Amp here when I get it.....for what that's worth given my not-so-golden ears.
