Speaker pairing

[Eddieckf]

I have a pair of ATC SCM 7. I am looking very hard at the Cambridge CXA81. My question is whether the Cambridge can drive the speakers. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

The Cambridge should have enough power to drive them but I cannot say how well they pair together as have never heard this combination

Based solely on others' descriptions of the sound of each, they might not be a good sonic match.
But only you can decide that.

I'd be looking more towards the likes of the Naim Nait 5si for the ATCs, adding any other connectivity you need with an outboard DAC.

Thank you all. After much consideration I have decided to add a power amplifier for bi-amping to drive the ATC SCM 7. I was using the Roksan K3 integrated amplifier and will add the Roksan K3 power amplifier
