Sonus Faber Amati with ARC Reference 600 Mk II

Amati are not the easiest load, but they don't need 500w either. I have heard people pairing them with Tenor with success, but some find big solid state amps better.

Will Reference 600 be overkill for Amati or I will be better off with lower power tube amp and save myself with expensive operating cost of high power tube amp?

The rest of the equipments are
VPI Aries, JMW
Not sure about phono stage yet
Sony SACD
Sonic Frontiers Line 3SE
AQ Diamond X3, Clear X3, and Cardas Golden Cross PC

Thanks for the input.

The best Amati set I ever heard is with VAC Avator EL34 integrated amp. It doesnt require tube power stations to drive. Remember, Musica..........the matching gear for SF Classic series, is just solidstate amp with 50w per channel output only.

If you owns WP, it is sensible to use power station to run the speaker well.
