I used a 25 watt PP tube amp with my KLH Nines successfully! Now have a Futterman H3 25 wpc OTL tube amp!

Jason , Gordon Holt power requirements recommendations is between 35 w and 75 w, my viva is 17w, ok on low volume, my art audio is 40 w this tube amp gives me more dynamic, extensions and nice bass and slam, Gondon is right.

There is absolutely NO benefit to replacing the stock power cords - contrary to what the neurotically obsessed will claim!
So true, replacing power cords will do sweet *.* to the sound.
As the current draw is so miniscule even a AC plug packs were enough to power the later Accustats ESL's

Changing power cords on ESL’s power supplies will do nothing whatsoever for the sound.
As rubbing a piece of plastic with a cloth is almost enough to power/charge them😉
