pass labs x250.5 or plinius SA102 for summits

Can't speak to the Pass or the Plinius, but I have run both the Parasound JC-1's and the Blue Circle 206 with the Summits, both are outstanding. Pre amp was the Blue Circle 3000 with GZPZ power supply. I have also heard the Conrad Johnson Pre (CT5) with the JC-1's and the summits. Very nice as well.

Would look for amp with extended frequency extremes summits have ample midband output, the plinius might be too much for the compression driver, pass isnt the last word in lowend control which that 15 will need, from what ive heard the jc-1 might be great. What levels do you need, if your not into 115 db, A good tube amp might be in order. Ive owned summits 4350 4435 L200 L300 L250 4320 ect. Favorite amp for those is a Crown Delta omega 2000 monos, 2K 2 ohms but sweet. I now own the plinius Sa250IV LOVE IT

i am sorry. these are the martin logan speakers and they have 200 amps driving the woofers.i live in texas and would prefer a ss amp with a tube pre.thank you for your response.
