Your experience as Yamamoto owner?
One other suggestion. . . not specifically about the Yamamoto, but about your design plans in general. . . You could contact DejaVu Audio outside of Washington, DC. They make their own line of 45 and 2a3 SET amplifiers and are highly knowledgeable... 
Your experience as Yamamoto owner?
I owned the A-08s for about one year and paired it with 102db ZuAudio Definitions. At that time there was a US distributor (I forget the name), but the amplifier never needed service. Eventually and although I enjoyed it a lot, I decided that I wa... 
Does such a speaker exist?
Despite Duke's comments, some of your criteria are easier to understand than others. I have heard four that might fit your wish list - Audio Note, the current Zu Audio designs, Daedalus, and Living Voice. Living Voice might be the most bass shy of... 
Which stand mount sealers sound great against the
Audio Note are designed to be placed against the wall behind the speakers - although ideally into corners. 
JJ 300 B tubes or others ?
There is a hyperlink on the Grant Fidelity home page for tubes. 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
The Takatsuuki 300b were designed to match the WE specs. 
Zu Druid & Definition Roundup
As I recall, there was a time when Melody was not available in the US - or at least hard to find - because of a change in importer/distributor. There are a lot of good 300b amps, but many fewer 845s. Glad to hear that they pair well with Zu. 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Amtrans is a Japanese vendor of various audio and other electronics. I have bought a couple of pairs of Takatski 300b from Amtrans. I have found them totally reliable and honorable. Only sometimes they are slow to answer emails from the US. (I onc... 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Although I have never heard the Elrogs (and I trust Charles' 'ears'), I am a fan of the Takatsukis. 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
As somewhat of an outsider, but one who is interested since I own an 300b SET, I am concerned by the number of failures and, even more, by the inconsistency in the company's response. Elrog has to understand that in the age of the Internet, all of...

I used a 2a3 amp with my ZuDef4s and found it to be a bit underpowered. 
Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes
Unfortunately, the prudent thing is probably to wait until the dust settles and Elrog solves the problem. I am rather impressed that Elrog produced a pair to match Charles' amp. Charles, did Elrog make a pair to your specs? Or did they cull their ...

2) There is an Audio Refinement integrated amp (pre-owned, of course) for sale on Audiogon. I have used this in two systems and liked it a lot. If you do not like the Krell/Zu combo, you might find the AudioRefinement/Zu combo to your liking.

1) Like Zd542 says, never let anyone do the thinking for you. You might like the Krell/Zu combo. Even though Zu speakers are very sensitive and do well with low powered amplifiers, they work well with a wide range of amplifiers and tend to transmi...
