Preferred Amps for Magico Mini II?

BAAS = Bay Area Audiophile Society. It's just a bunch of Audio nutcases (that's what my wife calls me) who like to physically get together and have group hugs which we can't do with online forums. ;-)

Just went to a demo last weekend to hear the Mini II and V3 with Alon Wolf the brain behind the Magico speakers. They were using all VAC amplification equipment for both speakers.

Front end was provided by Metronome. With the V3, they had used all reference level Metronome and VAC equipment, and less expensive equipment from the same manufacturer with the Mini II.

I am probably in the minority. But I thought the V3 with all that expensive equipment did not sound THAT impressive. The Mini II system had that midrange bloom that would draw you emotionally closer to the music, albeit the fact that the bass was not extended and tight as the V3.
