Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage and Single Ended Triod

Has anyone tried a SET tube amp with their SF Guarneri Homage?

Considering a 300B tube amp.

Not sure on how this combo will play out, but will soon find out. Will also try a 300B amp as well, if I can get my hands on one.

Using loudspeakers not designed for SET is very hit and miss mostly miss. And a reason why many do not enjoy SET. On your speaker most SET will be running into distortion on any peaks.

I wanted to convince myself that I could live with 15 watts but in the end I think I am fooling myself. Has anyone had a chance to try a pair of Cary CAD 805 AE's with their Sonus Faber GH? Any feedback would be much appreciated.
