Amp recommendations for Spendor

other perhaps obvious point i would add is that spendors old and new, being well designed well made speakers voiced with care, are revealing of upstream components, including the amplification -- certainly the higher spendor models are quite revealing in this regard

this is somewhat overlapping but also distinct from the issue of whether a certain amp can drive the spendor model well... spendors in general are not very hard to drive, are of moderate to decent efficiency

all the tradeoffs between tubed and solid state amplification, and quality tiers and power levels of each type, can be clearly heard on the better spendor models

for solid state amps

hegel
pass
ayre
naim (above nait 5i)

luxman is fine, very good sound, if not the best value...

many to choose from if going tubes... arc c-j vac octave vaic/ayon among others

-- no affiliation to any of the above other than having had them/heard them as a hobbyist --
