Pass amps can they handle a highly reactive speaker load?

Ok so I've learned a lesson after being in this hobble for almost 40 yrs no matter how great a tube amp is it will only be as great as it can be on a speaker that doesn't dance around with its impedance load electrically. How well does pass labs amps handle this situation? Martin Logan's are a very reactive load would pass handle the job.
speakers M L 15A.

It depends on the Pass amp. Audiogoner whitecamaross has been on an epic journey trying different amps, including many with ML 15As. Here is a quote from this thread:

"Pass and Logans are an unbeatable match though. "
