The Vandersteens with the Ayre V-5xe are wonderful! I've heard the Quatros, Quatro wood, and 5as with this amp and they sound great. If I ever own Vandersteens Ayre woud be the gear I would match it with. I owned the JC1s for a few years and they are good amps. But I think the only thing they have over the Ayre is the bass. With the built in subs on the Vandys this wont be an issue.
