Amp and speaker matching.


I wanted to know if anyone out there has driven a harder load speaker (86db to be exact), with a Tube Amp around 70 watts? I was thinking of driving a pair of Dynaudio Contour 3.0's with a pair of Prima Luna 7 monoblocks 70watts. Currently I use a Solid State amp 350Watts. The Dyns love power so im afraid to drop down in power.

I wanted to Thank everyone that responded...Most particularly
Atmasphere for the very informative link and Yes I agree it would have to be a 200watt or better tube design.Maybe a Audio Research. It this point i'm really thinking of improving the preamp with something more on the level of the McIntosh Amp. I am liking the tube/solid state combo for these dynaudios.
That is understandable. Dynaudio loudspeakers are designed for transistors. Its hard to make them sound right with tubes.
