Devore O/96 with Luxman 88uc

The best I have heard the Devore 0/96s sound was with a 60 wpc Atma-sphere OTLs. My friend owned a pair for a few years. Another friend had the 0/93s for a few years that also worked well with the Atmas. To my ears and with the right speakers OTLs are my favorites. 

I heard these speakers at Aural HiFi in Denver, not sure what tube amp it was paired with but wow what full rich sound.  My wife wouldn't let me buy them.

Rich is precisely the problem I think. Pair them with a rich sounding tube amp and you have an overabundance of rich. The Atma-sphere leaned them out and made them sound more real and less colored. 

@audition__audio  I heard them with a Leben CS600X and the sound was a little lean and very clean. Good to know though.

Yeah I have only heard the older Leben gear, but remember thinking it sounded good. Of course the real test is having it your home which I have not.
