Amps to drive Vandy 3A signatures


Hello all,

I am looking into the Vandersteen 3A signatures and noticed that they need quite a bit of juice to get them going. This fact may prevent me from purchasing these speakers since I cannot afford to spend more than $1500 total on amplification. Anyone have any good recommendations for amps, integrated or separates in this price range that can do an adequate job driving these speakers.

Thanks in advanced

I second the McCormack's. I used a pair in a vertical biamp with great success with these speakers. You have to go a ways to beat them for the money. Even the non-deluxe versions are good. You can upgrade through SMac later as mentioned above. The 3A Sigs operate below 4 ohms. The McCormack's double down into this load indicating more than adequate power supplies and current capabilities.
