RE: Amps for esl63

Posted by louie3 on March 7, 2017 at 07:02:34:
All I can do is relate my experience with the ESL 63s, which are the progenitor of your 2905s.

60 watt tube amps are sufficient in my room, but I augment the bottom end with subs with their own amps (Quad QMP monos)

Since the 2905s have more "bass" panels it is logical to assume the need for more power.

I would not have thought any 30-watt amp would be suitable for my 63s, let alone the 2905s.

My room is odd in that while it is 20 feet square, the ceiling is only 7 feet, effectively making it a smaller room.

The 60 watt Dyancos (60 is more hopeful than accurate, I suspect) get loud enough to overload the room if I am not careful.

I will leave it to the more technically minded Quad 0 Philes to explain what is going on with your 200 watt Gamut, cause that certainly should be plenty and then some.
