I am experimenting with my new Jolida JD-100A with different speakers. Currently it runs Dynaudio floorstanding 70s which are about 87 dB and 4 ohms. It is excellent. I am not sure that it is of the same quality as the CD5x or the Selas, but it produces fine sound. It is a hybrid with tube pre-amp and SS outputs. The remote is lousy but has a wide range. The unit is built well. For $700 it is quite a bargain.

Given the low sensitivity of your speakers, I think hybrid would be the way to go. Check out Pathos and Unison Research hybrids, excellent reviews.
