Pathos logos strong enough to drive winds?


Im looking at Pathos integrated amp and im wondering if it will strong enough to drive my Totem Winds properly. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. And any other integrated that compares would be a plus.

I find this frustrating because when i ask the dealers how the Pathos performs with the winds they all tell me that its more then adequate to drive the winds i have right now. I dont necessairely want a hybrid but i was considering it because of the reputation that pathos has. I have found a bryston bp 26 with dac at a very good price and would just need to find a good deal on a 4b sst and i think i would be happy having already heard the 4b sst on my system but wasnt hooked up on the bp 26 and can just imagine how much better it would be.
Thanks for your reply coutingbackwards. I was also at the Montreal CES show, and first was not really impressed with there set up. But came back later and gave it a second try and it was better. Although i must say that room was waayyyyyyyyyyyyy to big for there set up and some how the winds got lost in there and lost some of its charisma it usualy has. My dealer has the winds hooked up on some Mc 501's and man do they ever sound good there. But 10'gs just for amps? i cant afford that for the moment. But i will do what you said and contact someone i know personaly at totemaccoustics. Thanks for your reply,
After much pondering i believe i have come to a decision and will order the new New Audio Research vsi-60. I was really impressed with the power and precision it has. Hopefully it will be enough power for my winds and make them sing properly. I have a 30 day grace periode the dealer is giving me to try it out.
Well after much debate i have made up my mind. I will be stearing away from the tubes just because of lack of power. I have opted to go with a Bryston Bp 26 with dac incorporated and Bryston's 4b sst square. Thanks for all the patients and knowledge to the forums on audiogon. I should get the 4B sst in about 2 weeks and will keep you updated. Thanks again to everyone.
