As long as the amps have the power to drive the SF...it then comes down to what you like better...tubes or ss. I use ss amps and a tube pre myself.

Hi hambon. I am using the Merrill Audio Veritas mono-blocks and a Primaluna Dialogue Premium preamp [nos tubes all around]... the combo is just plain fantastic to my ears.

I'm using an integrated amp by Rotel (RA1592) with great results. I also tried the O3 in my big system and it sounded stellar there.
