Tannoy Differences

As someone who has limited access to Tannoy, but enjoyed their sound, just wondering if anyone can provide any insight. I am considering the DC8T, Turnberry, and possibly Kensington (most likely too much money). I am running Pass Labs XA60.5 monos.

Not sure how much stok to put into these numbers, but from Tannoy they suggest:
Kensington 50-225 watts
Turnberry 30-180 watts
Glenair 10 50-200watts

I would think with only having 60 watts, the Turnberry are my only choice.

Gwng8, the Pass 60.5 should drive any of those speakers easily unless you listen at exceptionally loud levels in a large room. Typically a pure class A amplifier of 60 watts would be the equivalent of a 200 watt power amp. Of those recommended I would buy the Turnberry or if funds permit the Kensington which has the alnico magnets and is more resolving.
