The Stereo 70 and AR3s was an almost standard combo back in the 60s. But you're correct that it was too little power. The speaker really needed hundreds of solid state watts with a high damping factor. In a way it was a speaker ahead of its time.
For what it's worth when AR did its famous AR3 versus live comparisons the amps used were Dynaco MK3s, a better choice but still probably too small.
