I sold Acoustats back in the 80's, I was the fifth largest USA dealer. The Mioscode amps were the best buy back then. I tried Audio Research, Conrad Johnson, Dynaco, and Quicksilver tube amps. With transformers in the Acoustats interfaces and in the tube amps, the sound was to slow and sluggish with very poor bass.The Acoustat TNT 200 worked well, but the Moscodes sounded better. In today's amps, I believe the Marashino Cherry amps would make a good pairing. These amps are lightning fast like the Acoustats are, are very natural sounding. They also have great bass, something that Acoustat III's need.
