Coincident Super Eclipses with ARC VT100

Has anyone used an Audio Research VT100 MkII with the Super Eclipses? Or for that matter any 100 watt push-pull tube amp that would be similar. Since I have no dealer close by I would be interested if it is worth the effort to hear them. As far as my listening preferences go, large scale classical, mostly Russian composers. Any information would be helpful.

Thanks

Thank you for the response Franks, I will plan on making a road trip to a SE dealer.

What speakers have you heard with the ARC VT100? Do you have any other suggestions for speakers that might go well with that amp. My room is approximately 13 ft by 15 ft.

Regarding the vt100, I heard it with the Proac 2.5 and 3.5's(maybe 3.8's?)both outstanding speakers and both were outstanding with the vt100. The list of speakers that work well with the vt100 is endless. Only speakers with very low effiency and/or impedence would not interface well.
I would give the SE a long audition. While it is usually paired with low powered tube amps thats because it CAN be, not that it has to. It is truly an outstanding speaker on its own merit and its side firing woofers would make them easier to integrate into your smallish room. Good luck and let me know how it turns out.
