I am still shopping for a good integrated amplifier to power my two pairs of large Advent Loudspeakers.

Has anyone heard the LFD amps -either the LFD MI100 SE or the LFD LE III?

All of the reviews I have read are very, very favorable but I am concerned that the LFD LE III at 60 wpc would not be enough power for the Advents and the step up to the LFD MI100 SE doubles the cost to $6000 total.

Would appreicate any advice on what would sound good with them.

Thanks

    I have heard both the LFD MI100 SE and LFD LE III, and chose the latter integrated. Don't be fooled by the 60 watt specification! It is more powerful than its convservative rating would suggest. While I am not familiar with the Advent speakers and of how the LFDs would drive them, I found the LE III more powerful than an Accuphase E-450 (rated 180 watts into 8 ohms). The bass went deeper and had more visceral impact than the other amplifier rated three times its power!
