Gamut L5 - best solid state and best tube amp comb


Guys,

I'm in the market for a used amp. Currently I'm driving my L5 speakers with an Einstein 100W stereo amp. It runs out of power at moderate volumes. What used SS or tube amp would mate well?

I'm looking for big sound stage and great imaging in an amp with lots of reserve power. I'm told these speakers dip to 2.8 ohms around 300hz. I listen to a wide range of music, but tend toward jazz and classical.

Preamp is Einstein, speaker cables are Analysis plus big silver ovals, not bi-amped currently. thanks.

I have used plinius sb301, and bel canto ref1000m to very good effect, no power problems.
Now using aesthetix atlas - great power, detail, air, control, somehow best of tubes and ss. Sought of working mans Lamm.
Also used cardas GR, it's perhaps a little too dark.
Also using audio research line stage.
