    Ciao Gordon

    To be honest, it is more power than you might need with the Vandy's. It puts out like 350watts into 8 ohms. I like the sound of Carver amps. Does a great job driving my Maggies. Wish I could afford to keep it. Its a toss up for my old ears between the Muse and the Carver. Since I have a pain in the arse neighbor, don't need the power any more. Both the Carver and Muse have a warmer tube like sound that I like. You are always welcome to audition it.

    Hi, I'm not sure when you posted the Muse for sale, but if it is available I'm interested in buying it.

    If it's no longer for sale, please let me know what your over all impressions were concerning its sound quality.

    Thanks very much,
    Michael
