Low powered SET w/ Virgos?


i am currently listening to my Virgos with a tube pre-amp solid state amp combo. i'm curious whether anyone has tried a low powered SET amp (say 5-15 watts) with this speaker. if so, what were your impressions and what SET did you use? thanks for the feedback

Not an SET, but in similar vein: Virgos driven by a Pathos Twin Tower (a hybrid integrated). The sound was "bouncy" and homogenious, as I remember, with good dynamics. Am not sure of top end extension. Source was cd and listening was at a dealer's -- so, pls take the commentary with more than a grain of salt. Also, didn't A-B the Pathos with an ss; I just listened in in an audition...
Do try before you buy: as you know, Virgos seem to like lots of current (although they do play music with less than the usual powerhouses).
Cheers!
