Got my SGM-10B from a 2nd shop a few minutes ago. Before I left, the
shop used a Cary 300B integrated to drive SGM-10B to a very satisfactory
level. Although it was rated 12W per, the sound was surprisingly punchy.

I have not got my spec's from Tannoy yet. Can anyone tell me the
sensitivity and impedance and power handling of SGM-10B ?  Is it better
to drive it with tube gear ???

It is a very nice speaker. Although I was told my pair was 12 yr old, it
still sounds tight. Hope my Mark 331 can open it a bit before I get
a tube gear to drive it. Is it really better with tubes ?  what tubes ?
KT88 or EL34 or 300B ?

Thanks for your advice.
