driving Verity Audio Parsifal Ovations?


I am considering driving these speakers with a high quality integrated amp such as the Luxman 590A11 (pure class A, 30 wpc) or the Luxman 509u (class AB, 120 wpc).

Has anyone been happy with Luxman or other integrated amps such as Pass etc driving the Parsifal Ovations?

Regards,

My system is somewhat similar to the one you are building. The M800a was much better than X350.5 that I had in bass control, detail and refinement. I also briefly owned the 590A and it was a spectacular piece. It had tons of function (phonostage, tone control) for the money and build quality is better than pass. I love Pass too and their service is superb. Just prefer Luxman.
I've (briefly) driven my Parsifal/Encore with a Bel Canto integrated. It worked nicely, although the combo was not particularly memorable. The P/Es are a modestly difficult load and at least a little bit of grunt is required to drive them well, 300Bs needn't apply. If the Ovation is similar to the Encore, any good 120 wpc ss amp that you like should mate well.
I have the Parsifal Encore's and I prefer them with tubes over SS. I've been driving mine with a VAC Avatar Super integrated amp (80 wpc) with good success.

Cheers,
