any Rethm owners out there?

I have a pair of Rethm Maargas that I've always driven with tubes.  Low watt Don Allen amps, 40-watt Golden Tube Audio, and 120-watt MFA M120 monoblocks.  Preamp is MFA Magus.

These are highly enjoyable speakers that are easily driven even by 4 watt amps like the Don Allen 2A3 SET but I was greatly surprised when i hooked them up to a pair of MFA M-120 monoblocks.  The bass tightened up, and dynamics increased and not in a subtle way.  The word effortless comes to mind.

I'm wondering what amps/preamps other are using with their Rethms, and also if anyone's tried using silver cables.  Thanks.

One of the distributors for Rethm has run the Bhaava with The German made Linnenberg Allegro mono amplifiers with great success. I believe even Jacob George commented on them at the show, saying he felt like they were one of the best sounding SS amps on his speakers that he had heard, and he prefers tubes. 
I happen to own Linnenberg electronics, but I have never heard them with any of the Rethm’s yet, but would like to at some point.
