Best Amp Martin Logan Summit

I jave heard it with VAC Phi Beta. Fantastic. Of course, what is nice for me, maybe a coloured and distorted sound for you.

Have you considered a YBA? In your price range you have too many options to count. Demo, demo, demo. The Passion 600 should be a very go match.

Good luck!

I have Summits, I have tried Krell 300c, DartZeel 108, Mark Levinson 432, Sonic Frontiers Power 3's. Settled with the most musical amp I have ever heard which is my Mcintosh MC2000 with NOS 12AX7's. This combo with the active bass is AWESOME. And I have to say I am a very critical.

I would stay with tubes. Those panels are two good for soild state. Even the best soild state. With good tubes I don't think better music can be made. Just my 2 cents.

Take a look at the Blue Circle 204 and 206 with the BC preamp. The preamp has an HT pass-through. I have the 206 and love it. Outstanding for 2 channel.

I have also tried the Summits with the Halo JC-1's with good result for HT set up.

I would definitely think about demoing the new Sim audio w-8 amp since it sounds neither like tubes or solid state.If you love superb dynamics along with huge soundstaging, as well as extemely neutral tonal balance.Beware that this amp will show any sonic warts that may loom upstream, as well as cable issues. My friend has a w-5 LE that is with SL3 speakers and achieves some mighty impressive sound in all of the mentioned areas.Resolution is something that the Sim excels at, and is truly world class.Good hunting Dennis
