Ideas? Price=under $3K. Listen to 1960s rock, some jazz, some opera, some symphonic.Prefer tall, rather than squat look.

As for hi-efficiency speakers, the Zu Audio and Cain & Cain offerings elicit high praise. I would look there for something suitable... -RW-

I ran my Abbys with a Fi 2A3 amp for several years, which made for a great combination. I also heard another 2A3 from Bottlehead which worked equally well - the 2A3 seems to be just the right tube for the Abbys.
