I used Farlowe era Exposure amps with my MFS and they sounded fabulous.

Someone used the old model ATC integrated at a Scalford Show a few years ago, sounded superb, I stayed and listened for over an hour.

They certainly sound good with Naim and latterly with Devialet

It was a good few years ago now but I recall the bass being tight, great midrange and a lovely clear sound without being bright, to me. I've been to quite a few shows and this was one of the best systems I've ever heard.

Its an amazing amp, i owned the SIA2-150 (the black one) for a few years. Its the kind of power you'll need to drive such a speaker.

Sorry, I should have said, it was this amp that was in use.
