The nice thing about the Mac tube amps is that you can run them on 2ohm taps, 4 ohm taps or 8ohm taps. Parallel or bridge them and they can run at full power into loan from 1ohm to 16ohms. The ACT 2 will drive them fine as well.
I run my 2xMC2102's parallel into 2 ohms at the moment at they sound great.
Running a quality subwoofer allows one to have that little bit of SS slam and extension without any of the drawbacks.
personally I could not see dartzeel power amp controlling the Strads very well, from memory they don't like driving low impedance loads .
SS amps don't really gel with the Strads IMO. I will howver be trying the enigmatic Arye MX-R's in a couple of weeks.
That said I would luv to hear the CAT tube amp.
