Best amp for Sonus Faber Cremona M - need help

You don't think that with this speakers a powerfull solid state amp would do a better job (esp. in the lower regions - I'm a bass guy)? Cremona used to like a lot of juice, but maybe the M is different in that regard also?

As for tube amps... Could you give me any suggestions for a good powerfull tube amp with remote control? Price range about 5000$.

Thanks.

Yeah,

Go with the Musical Fidelity. Best of both worlds and it is available in your country. Maybe the KW 500. Or a lightly used Tri or Nu Vista.

How about EAR? I own the EAR 890 and it is incredibly musical, neutral, and with its 75W per channel it should drive your cremonas pretty well.

I have an all Audia set up (CD1, flight pre & power) paired with peak consult empress and the sound is fantastic. I heard SF Amati Anneversario once and found them to be very nice and musical. Perhaps one of the speakers in this price range I would ever want to change my Peaks for.

BTW where are you located in EUR. Based on your location I might be able to give you something which money can't buy ;-)

I would never put a Musical Fidelity amp on the Cremona M. That would be very hard on the ears long term. The M is much different then the older cremona. On the older cremona I wouldn't mind the MF gear. I had Mcintosh MC501 on mine and it sounded very good. But the MC501 sounds great on anything.
