Amplifier for Totem Forest

Hello,
I just ordered a totem forest and wondering if you guys can recommend an amplifier that would sonically matched this speaker.

Does totem speakers sound better with Tube or SS amp ?

Regards,

I had them paired with a Aragon 8008 & they were amazing. They do need power.

I use tube in the pre-amp and then class-d power for my Totems. Sounds wonderful.

Enjoy,

I used a 200w/ch Krell amp with the Forest's and they suckked up every last ounce I could give them. When lesser power was used, they still sounded ok, but they will absolutely come alive and thrill you when fed alot of good clean power. For tube magic use a tube preamp or tube buffer i.e...Yaquin makes a killer for about $185!

My Forests get along well with my Plinius integrated.

I've been using my Forests in a secondary system with a Yaqin M13s integrated at only 40wpc. Mainly for late night/early morning listening and has been very enjoyable at lower levels, with such a holograhic sound. I never thought I'd get such a full range sound with no sub, but those Forests are amazing, imho.
