Wow, thanks for a very detailed answer. Much appreciated. I'm blown away by your setup btw.
The Tektons look awesome and reviews are great but I'm afraid they are;
a. Too big
b. Wouldn't pass the wife test :)
Still, I will keep them in mind for if/when we move and I have a dedicated listening room.
Also, thanks also for the wisdom on cabling etc. I thought to start with the major components and sort out "details" later.
On another forum, somebody pointed out that the amp is too expensive for the speakers I've chosen. How do you feel about that? Is this a hard-fast rule?

Background:
As I wrote, I've been doing online research about different components. I've read some pretty good reviews about the MA Silver 300s that included certain words that picked my interest so decided to use that as a starting point. After that, I started looking for a matching amp and saw some recommendations. Also, I've been meaning to build an analog system all along so started looking at mentioned tube amps. Finally boiled that down to Rogue Audio and PrimaLuna. Rogue Audio is better priced and has more available power to drive the MAs, so landed on that.
