Tube integrateds and Electrostatic Speakers

Any one out there experienced with Martin Logan or other electrostatics and tube amps? Am currently driving my ML Summit Xs with 185watts of SS power. I still love tubes and wonder how the complex impedance challenges they pose would work with something like a PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP.

Any thoughts would be most welcome.

 I have the HP.

Not using personally, but have heard several ML setups with PL gear. Also Stereophile reviews mention PL. driving difficult speaker loads including ML.

If you follow your hearing and not tech specs, realistic/convincing sonics is what I've heard. 

I say this because subjective good sonics doesn't always correlate with electronics 101 principles. Spec data isn't stellar, yet great sonics when actually used with "wrong" gear.
