SS amp with Merlins plinius ?

I'm planning to buy a pair of Merlins whenever an affordable used pair comes along. Meanwhile I need to get an amp. Because of baby in room I can;t go tubes. Anyone any recommendations on SS? I'm thinking about the plinius SA-100 which I've heared on other speakers and wuite impressed me. Anyone experience with that?

Want an OTL amp that will whip the pants off the 25W Transcendent Sound? This OTL increases output power as impedence drops, does not use alot of juice at idle (100W), IS stable at and below 4 ohms and outputs 70W @ 8 ohms which means it will drive the daylights out of the Merlins.

David Berning ZH-270

Estimated tube life - 10 years +

Weight - 10lbs :)

I'm using the ZH-270 to drive full range Soundlabs and can get well into the mid 90db's no problem. Talk about David and Goliath, no pun intended :)
