In that respect, my first hand experience is that Bryston amps are not well suited to low impedance / difficult loads. You can find a few others stating similar opinions in the AA archives and in Stereophile via their review of the 7B monoblocks. They didn't come straight out and say it, but they did make it quite clear that other amps of lower or similar power rating were able to drive the same loads without a problem while the Bryston was going into clipping quite frequently. With that in mind, i would think that there would be better candidates to use with your specific speakers.
As to Plinius, i have very limited experience with any of their gear. That was within a system that i did not know at all but did run a three piece Metronome brand transport, DAC and power supply with some custom built speakers. The presentation that came from that system was lean, bright, sterile and gave me an instant headache. Others have told me that Plinius gear is typically quite warm and smooth, but that is not what i heard from that ONE system. As such, i can't really pass judgment one way or the other.
Obviously, others may agree / disagree with my observations, but that has been my experience with the two ears that i have : ) Sean
