I've heard them with the BAT 600se and the sound was very good. Also heard them with the Mcintosh 301 monoblocks (tube). Also good but the BAT amps had something special going on with the Sashas.
No offense, but I know a person who is running them beautifully with a pair of 30 SET tube amps. On paper you would think so, but numbers only tell half the story
Different strokes for different folks. I know of examples of people driving them with 100+wpc SS amps and not being happy with the bass performance they are getting. As with all things if you can audition the amp/speaker combo you are contemplating, that is the best way to make any purchase decision. Good luck.
I would definetively take the stereophile measurements seriously ,i consider it a magazine with a more scientific aproach ,the rest is more screaming about whats the next best thing " or what is the bestëver" or "what is absolutely the best" With a impedance drop to 2 ohm at 86 herz i would definetively take a stable amp with good currentdelivery at that impedance, to make sure you hair a drumsolo on high volume without strain when you want it
