With my ML ESL 11a speakers, I use an audionet V2 amp 250 amps into 8ohm 450 into 2ohms. Works well for me. Tried a premluna tube power amp, preferred the solid state. I think you need to try a few differnt amps to find the sound you enjoy.
Electrostatics and tubes
I am looking to get some new to me speakers, I've been looking at options and would really like to try a set of planars "electrostatics". I have read or heard somewhere that as far as speakers go they tend to be inefficient (85 to 89) vs.90+(db) on the Klipsch or Dali's I've been tossing around as a standard speaker option. I guess my question is would I need to worry about any over heating issues. I plan on using plenty of power with a set of VTA, M-125's to power them. I am looking at a lower budget set maybe Martin Logan ESL 9's or Magnepan 2.7i . Just wondering I would hate to over heat a few hundred dollars worth of tubes if I don't need to. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ don't roast me to bad I cry easy 
thanks.

Steve Guttenberg followed up his review of the Eminent Technology LFT-8b with a review of the new LFT-8c. In the review he gives his opinion that the 8c is a significant upgrade from the 8b, and that he considers it superior to all Magnepan models, and all ESL's (of which he is not a fan). Here it is:
