Tubes or Sand for Totem Arro under 1k?

I'm building an office system around the Arros and need an amp that will make them sing at low volumes. The volume must be kept low as I'm on the phone most of the day in my 12x15 office. I love tubes, but am concerned about heat. How about Audio Analog Puccini? Pathos Classic original?

Your thoughts are appreciated.

as far as the classe integrated amps go, if you would stick to the cap 101 or cap 151, the sound would be very nice at a low volume level. another integrated amp that would be a very good combination with the arro's would be a mcintosh 6500. classe and mcintosh both have a tube like sound compared to other solid state units.
good luck.

i also use the arro's in my office/den, very nice speakers. other option's for an integrated amp for the arro's would be:
mcintosh 6500, classe cap series (101, 151). any of these amps (imo) have a tube like sound but with the punch of solid state. good luck. let me know what you get and how it sounds.
