What tube amp mates well with Sonus Faber Amati's?

I have recently purchased a pair of Sonus Faber Amati's and have not yet decided on an amp. One of the amps I have considered are the Cary 805c's however i was told the bass may be a bit defficient. The speakers are 92db efficient and are rated nominally at 4 ohms. The lowest dip is to 2.9 ohms. I would appreciate any thoughts on the Cary/Sonus Faber combination or any other amplification suggestions regarding this speaker. Thank you

I power a pair of SOnus faber GUarneri Homage with a Cary 805 C and teh sound is magical with PLENTY of bass. MORE bass than when I used a Mcintosh 602 600WPC SS amp. Ive had about a dozen amps over the past 4 years and the 805C amps are the best Ive ever heard. I also use a Cary SLP98P pre and SCD-1 for CD. I am using NBS Omega II speaker cables.

The GUarneri's are harder to drive than the Amatis being 87db so the 805C should make the Amatis sing!
