I have clearly a predisposition to single ended and Class A design. Push pull does not apply. The speakers are a demanding load though. They go down to 3.8 ohms.
buy the best amp you can find like the cary 805 or air tight 211 and see if they work with your speakers. If not, get rid of your speakers, they are broken. the amp is king.
The 211s are really an option for me. My concern is that they have only 22w of power. Wouldn't it be better to go for solid state Pass Labs XA 160 - class A 160 watts more so as I use a passive pre?
