Amp for Coincident Super Eclipse


I recently bought a pair of these speakers used, and in the process of a move, my amp has disappeared..

So I'm looking for a replacement - I'm using a Joule Electra preamp, and am considering a Moscode 401HR, 300B monos, or even a Threshold T-400 (overkill perhaps but I like the idea of power in reserve).

Any experience or thoughts on the best pairing(s)?

I auditioned Coincident Pure Reference with Frankensteins SET
and Art Audio push-pull amps of about 40-50 Wt? back to back, in the same session, in a small room.
It was abundantly clear, that the speakers were more dynamic and engaging with the higher power push-pull amps on anything more complex, then just plain vocal type music.
If I had to make that choice b/w 8 Wt. SET and a higher power SET or push-pull, i would have never chosen Frankensteins for the type of music, I listen to- classical, rock, etc)
BTW, Pure Reference are an outstanding speaker.
