Tubes or SS Amps for ML Requests


I recently purchased a pair of Martin Logan Requests and I am on the hunt for the best amp(s) for the job. I would like the
warmth of tubes but the authority of solid state. I've read many reviews and comments, and now I'm a little confused.
What are people using on their Requests? And Why? I would like to spend around $3k-$4k on used equipment. Please Help!

Tubes really sound great with the ML's. However, the more
power you deliver, the better the bottom end sound.
I originally drove my ReQuests with a CJ 11a which worked OK
then I went to CJ 8a's (cj 11= 70wpc 8a=275wpc)the difference was nite & day.
