Nagra electronics with Proac D40r


Hello all! 

First time poster, but long long LONG time follower at the forums... Thank you all for the breadth of your knowledge! 

Recently I have come across the opportunity to buy a demo Nagra Pl-l preamp paired with the vpa monoblocks.  

I'm worried about the ability to drive my d40R's (nominal impedance 4 ohms), especially in terms of the bass. 

Room is about 14'x18' . And to some extent I would have to get them sight unseen. Seller commits to take them back if there is some defect, but no synergy between components is not really a defect, hence my asking here... 

What are people's opinions on the Nagra's ability to drive the proacs?


Thanks in advance for your response!

The D40R sensitivity is rated at 90db & a drive recommendation of 10W - 250W so you should be ok at moderate levels with the VPA but as jperry mentioned, if you want to crank it with rock I would consider something else.
Have you got alternatives that you're considering?
