Legacy Aeris owners which amp do you use and why?

These speakers are rated 95.4 dB and are 4 Ohm. Sitting 4 meters from speakers would mean I would need no more than 16 watts to listen at 95.4 dB(which is way more than my normal listening levels). 

Since the amp is not powering the bass section what amp would you choose and how many watts. Tube Class A vs Solid State class A ?. 20watts to 80watts?

Excited to hear how Aeris owners get the most out of their speakers. My room is 24 x 24 x 8.

I would suggest finding a stocking dealer and try out amplifiers in your home with the Aeris.  Otherwise its really not something that anyone can suggest that will satisfy your ears, system and room.

That really makes me wonder if there is any future for brick and mortar if none are willing to allow a home demo to make a sale and cultivate a long term customer.
  I am a dyed in the wool tube guy myself.  I would look for a really nice tube setup used on Audiogon.  Great solid state is well above the point that I would be willing to spend and then I would still be a tube buyer.  Still have yet to hear the type of sound I prefer from any solid state gear.
