Spendor S 3/5 with Antique Sound Labs Wave 8


Has anyone used the Wave 8 or other tube amps with the Spendors? I am thinking of replacing my NAD 340, but am afraid of the incompatibility of tubes with these speakers (low sensitivity).

I would be cautious using a 8 watt amp driving those speakers. (84db/8 ohm) I see no problem w/ a tube amp
driving those speakers, but, higher power would be required,
IMO. Jolida has quite a few products that might serve your
needs. The only concern I have with those speakers and tube
amplification is that the sound could become too soft/mellow.
Depending on your tastes or room acoustics that might be just right. By all means upgrade your amplification.
