Will a pair of Manley tube amps be a good match for Martin Logan ESL 11A's?


I have been looking into the Manley power amps to drive a pair of Martin Logan ESL 11 A's. From Manleys specs they report a speaker load of 5 ohms is recommended. The Logans are rated at 4 ohms.

I was about to provide the same counsel as mijostyn above, and am gratified to read it here before I posted it. Roger Sanders excellent white paper on tubes vs transisters explains a lot.
My .02 is that you probably can pair Manleys with the Martin Logans, but at what cost? Which model in the range? I think you might find the Magtech equal or superior, at a very reasonable cost.
