McIntosh or Bryston amps for Legacy Speakers


Is anybody using Mac or Bryston amps with the Legacy Whisper or Focus speakers? Very interested in knowing the pros and cons...Also interested in knowing which amps are popular with these speakers and why.

I've heard the Mac stuff with at the Legacy showroom and it sounded good. Bill likes the Mac very much. He uses their multiamped piece with the Helix and stereo amps with Whisper and Focus. I've not heard the Bryston with Legacy but think it would sound good as the Legacy speakers like solid state. I use Krell at my home. You might also check out Coda amps as this is one of the main amps the speakers are designed with.
Hey John,
Yes it is true I love my Coda amps and CP preamp. I'm running two CX amps and one CSX amp to quad amp my Legacy Helix. Bill Duddleston uses Coda amps to voice all his speakers. I've had Mark Levinson 436s, Krell KSA 250s, Acoustat TNTs, Haflers, and several others in my system. None have amazed me like the Codas have.

If I were to upgrade amps I'd look to Coda again and purchase 3 of the 15.0s.
I think you'll have a great sounding, dependable amp and system for years.
Let us know how you like the 15.s.
Steve
