What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s?If you have an impedance/phase graph on them it will be very easy for those who can read them to recommend an amp.

What type of Amp for Ohm Walsh F-5015s?
AudigoN Team,
Looking for some thoughts on amplifier choice for Ohm Acoustic F-5015 speakers that I will be getting shortly. Would these sound better with a class D amp or a class AB amp?
I have some space restrictions (17 inch deep open wood shelving with a back wall) that are limiting my amp choices absent a furniture change and I don't want to do that unless totally "painted into a corner" John, the owner of Ohm told me that I should have at least 200 watts at 6 ohms to power the F-5015s. The powered subwoofers built into these speakers come with class D IcePower amps with line level inputs, so the amp that I obtain must have two line level subwoofer outputs.
The two units (2 line level subwoofer outputs, 200 watts around 6 ohms, less than 17 inches deep, don't run hot) that have come up in discussion with John and Evan at Ohm are the class D NAD M32 and the class AB Parasound Halo INT6. I have read that the INT6 doesn't run too hot, so it hopefully would be ok in a piece of wood furniture. After my discussion with Ohm, I saw that the class D Peachtree Nova 500 could possibly work based on the specifications, but can't seem to find any reviews on this higher power Peachtree amp. Another wild-card that would be much more expensive and offer higher power output would be the NAD M12/M22 v2 combo. I am aware that you likely get what you pay for and that the NAD systems are higher priced, especially the non-integrated combo.
Would appreciate your thoughts / amplifier guidance and any additional suggestions.
