RE: Ayre or CJ for Vienna Acoustics Kiss?

The Kiss have a nasty impedance and low sensitivity @ around 86db. They need a SS amp IMO.

Also the MX-Rs have a very high input impedance of 2 mOhms so they will be a good match electrically for the Cary pre with its high output impedance (as measured in Stereophile).

On the other hand, using a tube amp with a higher output impedance may compensate a little the poor frequency response linearity that the Kiss have.
