Hi there;

I own a pair of PMC IB1's. Shortly I will be selling these(mint black ash pair) and they will be replaced with the New PMC IB2i's. I am looking forward to them!
As far as amplification, I started off with Anthem MCA series,
followed by Bryston 4bsst's. They where similar, but the Bryston had better control.
I then changed to McIntosh C500t tube pre and MC501 mono blocks. I could not be happier as far as the PMC's now sing!
Don't get me wrong the McIntosh bass is different than Bryston,but not by much. Where I feel the McIntosh takes over is the overall musicality.
I know the PMC IB2i's will take things up a few notches shortly.
Just my 2 cents in my system.
Cheers!
I have pmc mb2 xbd active

pmc work best with bryston but must either be active or triamped to come alive
did you mean passively tri-amp? I am currently passively bi-amping.
Thanks for all your responses guys.

I've owned a lot of PMC's, they are favorites of mine.

Naim + PMC is a MAGICAL combination.
Yes passively tri-amped - its a big improvement over bi-amping.

Not the naim nap 500 with the mb2 I am afraid. It keeps cutting out at more then 10 o clock on the volume control. Maybe ok with smaller pmc but bryston sounds so much better than naim with pmc I dont know why anyone would try.
