Amp Confusion

Well, I am looking at the possibility of purchasing a pair of Tyler Acoustics Decade 2 Loudspeakers which are floorstanding (88sen) and am thinking about the following amps. I am thinking about the Pathos Acoustics Logos, the Bat 300x, the Bel Canto Evo 2, and the Bel Canto 300i. Unfortunately, the only one of these i have heard is the logos but that does not mean that it is the best match for tyler speakers.

My system consists of the Tyler Signature Series. The pre is an Audio Horizons by Joseph Chow which is fed by a Audio Research CD-3. The amps are Classe CA-150's which are biamp mode. Yes, I realize that the new Decade 2's are an improvement but I thought this info could shed some light on your pursuit. The speakers seem to thrive on the solid state amps. Steve

Sorry for the delay in responding. Have kayaking all day and just got on line. My musical interests are in full orchestral works. The power of solid state to my ears allows the reserve for the range associated with the low organ to the mezzo soprano to the violin. Yes, the discussion about tubes versus solid state goes around my audio friends constantly. They agree that for my music tastes the solid state suits my needs. This not to say that a solo violin or female voice is hindered in any way by this setup. Hope this helps. Steve
