Tube amp for a somewhat difficult load


My speakers are Hales Concept Fives rated at 86db/w/m 6 ohm.
I am looking for tube amps that will give me the tube sound, or is this futile for a speaker of this nature and am I just wasting my money? These speakers need a minimum of 100 watts with solid state. My room is 24 X 16, and I listen to mostly classical music.

There is a product called the Zero Autoformer that I recommend you investigate along with your amplifier search. You can find information regarding these at the following link. http://www.condor-connection.org/asog/tweaks/ps/index.html

My speakers are rated as a nominal 8 ohm impedance and benefited dramatically by using the 2X setting of the autoformer.

I do not use any speaker cable, just the Zero's, with my monoblock amplifiers. They are a truly tremendous product.
