Tube amps with Apogee Scintilla's your thoughts ?

I should receive my Apogee Scintilla's tomorrow. Just wondering what is going to happen when I throw the switch to the on position on my old VTL 300 mono's.
Will they handle it or will they expire ?
These are the original 1 ohm version. If there are any users (past or present), what kind of amps did you use on your Scintilla's ? thanks for your thoughts (prayers for the vtl's might help)

I used a Classe DR3 VHC on my 1 ohm Apogee Scintilla. I don't hold too much hope for your VTL's

check the archives they have been written up more than once of the FEW but various amps that will survive them.

The DR3 was a classic amp for the Scintilla, I still regret not getting one when I was a Classe dealer in the old days. I still have a pair of Duetta Signatures but they are much easier to drive. I suspect that you will need solid state for them.
