Default Tannoy Prestige - Amp Matching

Hello,

I am looking for general discussion on matching Tannoy Prestige models to various amplifiers.

For me I have the GRF90's currently powered by a Luxman L-507uXII. Their middle of the line integrated amp, running 110Wpc at 8ohms. "...specified idle AC draw of 86 watts, it is reasonable to assume that the L-507uXII is biased relatively richly into Class A operation." While I like the amp for its flexibility and simplicity, I would like to plan on upgrading down the line. As I intend to have these speakers for a long time (unless I find a pair of CANTERBURY GR for a reasonable price...), I would like to know what amplifiers I should be setting my sights on for the future.

Do members here use high powered Class AB, lower power Class A, solid state, tubes... low power 300B tubes...?

I am interested to hear your thoughts and experiences.

Thank you for the discussion.
Steve
