The Esl and esl x are great speakers! I had the esl x and eventually upgraded to the esl 13a. Here is my opinion.. ML speakers love power... but not just watts, they also need volts.

I have the magtech amp and it’s totally badass. Im not saying that its the one for you but I promise that high voltage is super important.
Maybe demo a t+a amp 8 as it is a hv design... or just pony up for the magtech
