Good comments above. I have particularly liked the 2C speakers with tube amplifiers, but not under 30 watts or so. As Siliab says, these speakers are revealing enough to reward you with each improvement in electronics driving them. Among the amplifiers I would consider if I were buying 2Cs once again are:
Atma-Sphere M60 or MA1
David Berning ZH-270
Shindo Labs Montrachet EL34 (40 watts)
Conrad Johnson Premier 11 (used) or MV60
Balanced Audio Technology (BAT) VK-55
