I've owned both 2CE's and 3A's but never paired them with solid state. They do match well with Quicksilver though and the Quicksilver "mini-mono's" would drive the 2CEs. Another very good match is AES mono blocks using 845's. They produce 22 singel ended watts and create gorgeous music when matched with Vandersteen.
Integrated Amp for Vandersteens
I currently have a pair of Vandersteen 1Bs that I hope to replace soon with Vandy 2Ce Signatures. Before that, though, I need to replace my old receiver and am looking at integrated amps. Based on reviews, I'm considering the Arcam A85, Creek 5350, Musical Fidelity A3, and Rotel RA 1070. Though at a different price point, the NAD C370 has also been recommended. HT is not a consideration. I listen mostly to classical music in a room that is 15 x 24. Any thoughts or recommendations?
Thanks.
