Tube Amps for Coincident Super Eclipse


I have just purchased a pair of Coincident Super Eclipses, and am seeking advice from my noble HI-FI friends on which tube amp to mate with these speakers. I would like to keep my price below $3500. I auditioned them with the Cary 300SEI and that was pretty sweet. Any thoughts?? Thanks!!!

Look on this site for a used Bel Canto SET40. 40 wpc of SET. More than enough to drive your speakers. I am currently running the SET40 with a pair of Vonschweikert VR-7's. The sound is wonderful.. all the virtures of low powered SET's but with enough juice to fill the room with wondeful music. The 845 tubes will last a long time.. about 8 years with normal use and they are still in production. The CJ amps that I tried were overly warm with soft bass. SET gives you that fast detailed sound with a mid range that is second to none.. mike
