Shindo Amp with JM Reynaud speakers?

I have Reynaud speakers - love em for the emotional portrayal of music.
I'm about to upgrade to the new Offrande - 91dB, 8 ohms nominal, min 6 ohms.
I hope to have a Shindo Aurieges L as pre-amp and a Montrachet.
Will this be a good match?
My music is all acoustic, and 90% is female vocals.
I'm guessing the full EL34 sound with Reynaud immediacy will put me in raptures.
I'd appreciate any thoughts.

40W Class A PP EL34 will be incredible with Reynaud speakers. I drove my Reynaud Twins(90dB/4ohm) w/ a 12wpc Audion Sterling ETSE EL34 SET amp and it worked really well within it's power limits. Midrange was glorious and his were great. Could have used more power in the lows, but what can you expect under those circumstances.

If you check Bob Neil's "Enjoy The Music" series of reviews for all the Reynaud line of speakers, he used Audiomat's line of integrated amps which are mostly EL34 based.
