What is the best amplifier for Rockport speakers?

I am interested in viewpoints on power amplifiers for Rockport Technology speakers (Merak, Antares or Hyperions).

Andy Payor himself uses them and says he has never heard anything like them before. The Rockport's thrive on the speed and clarity of the Tenor's. I have heard so many other amplifiers and none are like the Tenor's, with the right speakers. Rockport, of course, will be driving their speakers at CES with the Tenor 75Wi OTL's.

They are 300/600/1200 watts into 8/4/2 homs with aboutt least 6 db of headroom. Although I have not heard them yet, I am told they will sound exactly like the 75 Wp, but with the ability to limitlessly drive any speaker. Come to CES. We will be showing them with the Kharma's.
