Lavardin IT or Jadis DA50 Signature?


Difficult but hesitating between a Lavardin IT amp (SS) and a Jadis DA 50 Signature (tube). Who can advise me wisely?
Speakers: will change into Dynaudio, Apertura, Triangle, Totem,..

I have just changed my IT and use a tube amp too, Viva Solista not Jadis. I have heard Jadis on a number of occasions. The IT is everything people say of it, but only 50 watts. It is fast clean, transparent, but it lacks drive. It is on the polite side of neutral. It worked well on my Living Voice Avatars, but was running out of puff on my new Acoustic Zen Adagios(89db, ok, but only just. As a matter of interest, my Karan K180 has many of the IT virtues, but certainly more base control and better dynamics. A clear step up with the Adagios
