RE: Amps for esl63

I am always surprised by how good the Dyna III are, considering that they are designed so wrong. With modern parts and KT120s they are just amazing for the cost. Compete comfortably with $5k equivalents. Also the quicksilver amps. But I think the most popular pairings for Quads are EL34 amps from the likes of Audio Innovations and other boutiques, Border Patrol DHT SETs with parallel tubes is another example..In SS your 50 watt high bias class A/AB amps like Sugdens and classic Musical Fidelity come to mind. My own experience is with Mac tube amps.

All the amps you listed are on my "likely to work with Quad ESL" list. I also think the little Monarchy amps are "surprisingly good" and tolerate odd loads well.
