what is an ideal tube amp


I have recently purchased a new pair of ClassicAudioLoudspeakers T-3,I believe there efficiency is about 105db/w-m .for my bedroom system.The impedance of the speaker is 16 ohms (varies between 10-20 ohms) I am presently powering them with a Gryphon Antileon Signature biased at 50 watts for class A.The sound is wonderful imaging is perfect in all three dimensions with fantastic clarity and non fatiguing,but very sensitive to sweet spot.I am told by that horn speakers sound best with tube amps,particularly set amps.
I have not had a tube power amp for over 25 years and that was a poor experience.Where I live there are not to much choice of audio dealers who support tube equipment.That means that I may have to purchase an amplifier without the ability to audition it in my system.I need help ,most tube amps I have seen looked at do not have a 16 ohms speakers tap,does that matter??I particular a 10watt amp with only output at 8 ohms I would lose half the power which may not be adequate?I would like to avoid mortgaging the house for cost of the amp,in other words those very unique Japanese amps with a price of $5,000 per watt are out.I do prefer balanced inputs as my Meridian 861V6 has XLR outputs,I use the Sooloos system extensively,however I can also use my Einstein preamp could with all my sources,Zanden transport,DAC or for sacd the Accuphase 800/801 combo.
I would also prefer a trouble free tube amp which does not require constant tuning or tweaking.I listen primarily to classical music.Your counsel will be greatly appreciated.

Did John offer any opinion on the Atma-sphere or Wavac with regard tho his speakers?

Why don't you ask John his opinion about Allnic performance versus other brands. I don't need to be speaking for him.

You might even ask him what he thought about my set up, he visited here and listened with me.

SET or OTL should work very well. Personally, I would probably go with a 45 SET or an OTL. The small Atma-sphere amp (S-30) would deliver 45W into a 16-ohm load and delivers the liquid sound of tubes while having a very solid bass foundation. The 45 will only deliver about 2W but for your efficiency level and bedroom size room would handle just about any music you throw at it. The 45 has more musical presence than just about any other tube I've tried. Honestly, I can't think of any tube or tube topology that would not work in your system.
If you want to save some bucks check out Mapletree Audio preamps and a pair of their Super Stealth amps. Classic circuits and just different enough. SET's will work with horns but having a more controlled bass lower output impedance will never hurt.
