Recommended amp for Quad 57.

Yes I searched the archives but didn't get much. So....

A friend of a friend just inherited his pop's old Quads. He was wondering what amp would be good to drive these old doggies. Don't know his price range so any suggestions welcome. General idea's like SS vs Tube or whatever would be helpful. Thanks.

The Berning amp you are referring to is the EA-230. Stereophile recommended it (almost 20 years ago) as an excellent match for the 57. While I've owned both the EA-230 and the Quad 57, I didn't own them at the same time, so I haven't heard them together. Based on their sonic qualities, it should be an excellent match.
