Need opinions on a tube amp for Wilson WP8

What do you think is a good tube amp for these speakers? I just bought the speakers and never heard them before. Thx.

Audiogon member Jfrech has the W/P8's with these amps, you may want to send him a email for the specifics. I use the BAT 150se amps along with the BAT REX pre-amp driving Avalon Eidolon Diamonds and the sound scares me at times it is so real. All the best to you in whatever you decide....... Tom

And these are steal used if you buy used. I am guessing VTL and Audio Research will be great to. What's the rest of your system and cabling? Room size? Good choice on speakers :)
