Narrowing on suitable amp for Martin Logan CLX


Hi there

Interested in peoples experience with the following amplifiers with the CLX

All but one I have now heard

VTL seigfried
Soulution 700
CH precisions A1
Goldmund 1000 Telos
Accuphase A200
Berning Quadrature

I have heard all but Berning Quadrature

But I hear great things about Berning with electrostatics

The rest of my system is Accuphase reference 3800 900/901 DG 48 with stealth IC and SC
Room is 60ft b y 18 ft dedicated room with idescent subwoofer

I listen to classical mainly orchestral, piano and vocal

My priorities are timbral correctness, detail and transparency with good soundstaging

Up till now I have achieved all but tonal correctness especially on violin and woodwind (not brass)

Any thoughts or experiences especially with Berning would be most edifying

Warm regards

Andrew

I would go with the CH Precision A1 over all those amps. It's probably the best amp out there today as it has the beauty but brawn as well and can provide proper power/current into your speakers. You can also adjust the feedback and gain to suit tastes. Read the TAS and Positive Feedback review of the A1. Both writers prefer CH over Goldmund and Soulution so you might find these reviews very informative.
