I'm looking for the best amp to use on a pair of Apogee Stages.  The mags say
the Classe DR-8s or 9s are the way to go, above all else.  But I don't know if
they have tried them with tubes, like VTL or Music Reference, or ...   The
Classe is reputed to be the solid state amp that most closely gets to the 
good parts of the tube sound.

I am getting a Classe and a Music Ref. RM-9 demo, but I would appreciate any
info or opinions on this subject.
