Anybody heard the Quad 21L or 21L2?

Arcam A70 or NAD C72 for Vandersteen
My experience with Arcam and Nad is that Arcam tends to be a little more articulate and refined while the Nad delivers more current /power and has better drive.Both are a touch warm sounding.I have not heard your speakers so I wont make a reccomen... 
Question about set amps and low sensitivity spkrs
No harm in trying both 4 and 8 ohm taps and going with whichever ones sounds best. I have found 8ohm taps to sound better than 4 ohm taps with 4 ohm speakers- but it is a case by case basis. -Rob
