Is my VTL IT-85 enough for Eggleston Fontaine's?

Hello all,
At the moment I have a nice simple setup consisting of VTL IT-85, Meridian 596 dvd, and Audio Physic Spark III's all connected with Audience AU24 cables and Black Sand Silver Reference power cords. I live in a small apartment in NYC and this setup has been excellent for my small living room. However I've now caught the bug again and am wondering about changing my speakers for Eggleston Fontaine's. I love the simplicity of my VTL, but will it have enough Juice for the Eggleston's? Should I look at the Isabel's instead? I'm looking for more bass extension. Give me some suggestions guys. Thanks!

Hi there, I am sure it will work well, I tried a few including the VTL and also the BAT VK60, very nice to be honest. I decided to go Solid State though, big fan of the Esotar tweeters, I feel it needs the power to do full justice. I tried a few Krells and worked wonderfully and also the Krell integrateds....ended up with Rowlands. Magical.

Rowland, Audience Cables for everything, SCD1 source all plugged into Richard Grays and all isolations devices I could get my hands on, I now only spend money on CD's and LP's....
Enjoy since its a good choice made.
