Honest opinion's of the Mighty KLIPSCHORNS????

I finally purchased a pair of 1981 Klipschorn speakers. I highly considered them for many many years. Although I will not be setting them up until my room is complete, I just wanted some honest opinion's of people that actually own them or have owned them? I find most owners use tube equipment on them. However I have never owned any tube gear. I will be using the system for 50% home theater and 50% music and would also like advise on a 5 channel solid state amp that may work well with the K-HORNS? I will be using an EAD Ovation pre-amp. Any and all feedback both positive and negative is greatly appreciated.

Thanx
Eddie
