>>Sanders Sound Systems ESL MkII Monobloc Amplifier <<
1,000Ω input impedance balanced, 100KΩ unbalanced. Amp is supposedly designed specifically for e-stat speakers and their sometimes difficult loads. I have a friend that just bought a pair of these amps. He loves them except . . . He's driving them with an ARC Ref something-or-other preamp in balanced mode . . . and experiences noticeable low-end roll-off. He's in the market for a new and more capable preamp.
