Amp to power Model 2 Vandersteen speakers

In the mid 1980's I used 4 Meitner mono block amps on a pair of Vandersteen 2 .Best bass I had ever heard from Vandies.

i currently have musical fidelity x250 monoblocs with a adcom 750 preamp. i recently went back to my mccormack 162 for a trial. i found that i do like to warmth of the MC162 but the vandy 3a sigs need a good bit of power to open up....

I am using a Rogue Cronus with 2Ce Sigs and couldn't be happier. All the dynamic kick of a ss amp but with the sweet tube midrange. It can go loud and push serious with very low fatigue. Very musical.

I am currently running a Simaudio I-5 integrated amp, but I have a Van Alstine tube/SS hybrid preamp and power amp on order. The Simaudio (soon to be listed in the classifides) is quite nice, but I am very impressed with the hybrid tube design of Van Alstine. I auditioned the Van Alstine hybrid amps and preamps in person and was totally blown away!

I'll second the McCormack. I have a DNA 0.5 with Vandersteen 2ce's. Actually, Steve McCormack is the one that recommended that I try Vandersteen's with my McCormack amp. He told me that he uses Vandies in his shop.
