Tubes or solid state for Sonus Faber Grand Piano

I own the Sonus Faber Grand Piano Domus Speakers and am using the McIntosh MA6900 Integrated amplifier (200 WPC). I have an opportunity to buy a McIntosh MA2275 Stereo Vacuum Tube Integrated Amplifier rated at 75 WPC. Will the GP Domus sound good with tubes? It has been my experience that the GP Domus requires high power to sound good and I am concerned at using 75 WPC. Will bass response be a problem with tubes? I noticed a huge sound difference when I switched from 50 WPC to 200 WPC. Please send me any comments and suggestions you have? Thanks..

hgeifman: I am thinking to build a similiar system, just wondering if you got a chance to listen to mc352 and the c2200 (tube pre). If yes, what do you think of them. I got a chance to listen to the c2200 at my local mac store when Ron/Mike hosted the event. I really enjoyed the sound; huge soundstage; not as detail (don't know if it is the right word) compared to all tube.
jabo: interested to hear your opinion on mc352 and c2200 with the SF GP Domus.
