Not that this is helpful for the OP, but...
I own MBL 121 monitors, which have essentially the same tough-to-drive specs as the big models.
And yet my CJ premier 12 140w tube amps seem to drive them great and even more wild, probably my favorite pairing has been my old Eico HF-81, 14W tube integrated. They sound glorious driven by that Eico!
(I don't listen very loud, but even when I do crank it up, it still sounds great).
