I have 2 VTL 225 monoblocks and 2 VTL 85 monoblocks and I have updated both with new tubes , power cords and caps, both sound great
I use a Sumo Polaris Class A amp (I know, they don't exist but mine does) with a Berning TF-10 preamp. Also use a Quad 909 power amp, Krell KSA150, Sumo Andromeda, Berning AE230, and Adcom 550's for subwoofers. Much too much stuff!
A pair of the original Quad ELS speakers.  Together with an original Naim amp bought directly from Julian Vereker, they sit in a closet while I listen to a Sanders Sound system which is in every way better.  Still I like just having them!  I’ve also just sent a Decca London Gold back to John Wright for service - I brought that from England when I came here in 1973.
I've been using a Krell KST 100 from 1993 with Vandersteen 2 ce. It was a well made and designed amp that still sounds great. Better amps yes but not worth the expense.
Right now a Nikko Alpha 130, Museatex AVC1 running Castle Durham 900’s and soon to be restored Rauna Tyr II’s.  An early LSA/Columbia (Pre Denon) TT, Rotel 855 cd player, Creek phono stage, NAD analog tuner complete the setup
