Tube amp


Any thoughts on using a Tube amp with B&W 801`s. I am currently using a Mark Levinson 23.5 which I`m NOT looking to replace. I like the looks of Tubes and am considering purchasing one. Thoughts??

I've been using VTL 450MKII tube amp with my B&W 801S3 for years. I also have a not often used Jolida 1000a intergrated amp that uses EL-34's tubes.  

The VTL is smooth with good bass and is in line with modern high powered tube amps.  The Jolida reminds me of 60's tube gear, very lush and warm.  My comments are based on my related gear and room conditions.
