I don't know what designers intended for certain, but I suspect SS amps all the way. ML is pretty mainstream and tube amps and speakers that work best with them is way more of a niche market.
The best ML demos I have heard was off a Krell integrated amp in one case and a similar Classe amp on another occasion.
I have never seen or heard them with a tube amp.
