I agree with Aprica88 in that you shouldn't settle for SS. One tube amp that would drive them is the Art Audio Jota HC (high current) SET with KR 300BXLS. Power is 24 tube watts per channel (WPC), and most of the time you'll be using only the first, so there will be plenty of headroom and no clipping. Suggest you shop for a pair of used monoblocks.
A good amp for Tannoy speakers
Hello
Looking for suggestions and advice on a good Tube OR SS amp for my recently acquired Tannoy Kensington speakers (10" dual concentric driver). I love the sound of tubes hence I would prefer tubes amps but I am also very interested in trying out a smooth and musical SS amp. My budget is <= $5K.
My present tube amp is the Audio Aero Capitol amp and it doesnt have the power and control for the Tannoys. I listen quite loud sometimes.
Thank You
