What an interesting tripple test. It shows that matching is everything! A high-end amplifier on a - relatively speaking - entry level speaker does not always have to work. Indeed, it can turn out terribly bad as we have heard. Balance is everything. Both in life and in hifi. However some speakers do grow along. The Sonus Faber Lumina II shows that. It matches easily. And that can make the life of a hifi lover easier!
