Best amp for Sonus Faber Cremona

I’ve recently acquired some Sonus Faber Cremona floor standing speakers and would like some recommendations for separates or integrated amps. Since these speakers are 14 years old all the write ups I can find are that old as well. Hoping for some current recommendations under $15k new or used. Room is 16x21 treated and speakers are 4ohm 91db. Please only reply if you have heard these actual speakers as they sound different than the newer lines of Sonus Faber.

 Thanks!

Yes definitely. They are 90db… I am actually driving my Sonus Faber Amati Traditional (90db) with my Audio Research Reference 160s in triode mode (75 wpc). I had a guy come over and turn them up louder than I would ever even consider listening to music… they sounded amazing… although too loud for me, ever.

Ref 75se is very powerful. For tube power amplifier, how powerful are they? Don't see the specs,you better try and see.

I have VT100 mkiii at the same time, but ref 75se go over by far.
