I believe that tubes add warmth and life to the rather lean character of logans.
The difference was rather pronounced when I went from solid state to tubes on my ReQuests. A buddy borrowed my tube amp to try on his Maggie 3.5's and sold his solid state amps and bought Cary V12 monoblocks.
I understand your concern for power as I had to go from a cj 11a to 12's to get dynamics and control. I have no relation to the seller of the set of 12's on sale here now and do not know your budget but they are fantastic reliable amps and have grunt and soul.
I moved up to Summit's as I really like rock music and the powered woofers let the 12's loaf but tubes and stats (to me) go together.
Have Fun!
