Almost any speakers that don't require a terrific grip of the bass, some, not many bass reflex systems tend to be slightly boomy. My Tannoys are fine, although reflex. LS3/6 has tighter bass on 405-2, but rest of the freq range I prefer 303.
I have so many, but Quad ESL57's, LS3/5a, LS3/6, Tannoy HPD315, JR149, my Quad ESL63's have developed a fault, so can't use them.
I have four 303's, can't think why!
This is the Proton 520B, similar to the 520 except minus tone controls (I believe). I'm using a 520 through Rogers LS3/6 at the moment, it's an excellent little amp, can't fault it.

Just spotted another difference, 520 can be used as a pre for any other power amp, doesn't look like one can do that with the 520B.
It seems that NOS 401 is not rare anymore:D
