best SET amp for Sonatas


I am currently running a Jolida EL-34 PP integrated with my Silverline Sonatas and have the bug to upgrade the power. Any advice on SET amps which will work well with this speaker (mk I Sonata at 93.5 db). I have heard good things about Cary 300b and the sonatas. My music tastes range from female vocals to Jazz, Blues, Rock. thanks for your help.

I've heard the Art Audios would make a nice combination if you have the $$. I've also pondered whether the Atma-Sphere M60's might be a good alternative... although not quite the 300B sound, they could bring that clean OTL and single ended effect [with some extra oomph] to an already sensitive speaker... could be a flattering combo. Might also consider the Joule - Electra OTL's or possibly the Stargates... for the same reasons as the Atma-Sphere. I too have Sonatas and have been contemplating all the interesting amplifier options I have. It's nice having "amp friendly" speakers isn't it? I'll be curious about your audition findings. Happy hunting and good listening.
