I would appreciate input from anyone using Raidho Eben X3.0 or Ayra 3.0 speakers regarding what amplification you've tried and what audible differences you've heard.

I see it has been a while you posted this. Anyway, I would like to put my comments.

I have had the Eben X-Centric and X3.0 and now the newest X3.0 Ceramik MKII.

Started out with some Audiolab gear and it worked well. The speakers are very revealing, so better gear is preferred. Both regarding more power, but they also like gear with good components used. Like cables etc. Everything weak in the chain is revealed. I now use Symphonic Line amplifier and tried 3 of their products. The smallest/cheapest of theres is a real good bargain and can say nothing bad about it, but the Raidho speakers played much better, when I tried a couple of their larger models. I have the Symphonic Line Kraftquelle 2 amp now and it is very fast, powerful, detailed and plays very well with the Speakers.

Hope you go for the Raidho speakers ! :)
