I've heard so much about these legendary SET mono-blocks; but as I understand it, it's VERY important to match them up with proper (efficient) speakers.Anyway, I'd welcome some feedback on matching these amps with Lamhorn 1.8's + AER MD3B drivers (~100dB, 16 ohms).

HookEm, what you ask is in a way irrelevant. The topology of Lamhorn, the single driver with back-loaded horn appendix, implies very specific sound and very specific way of use those speakers.  I am pretty sure that 18W Lamms will be able to handle it. I am also very sure that Lamms will not the weakest element in your intellection. Put in this way – pretend you pay many hundreds dollars for some super-duper powerful power screwdriver… and then use the handle of this screwdriver to drive nails into the wall. This is how I feel about the idea to drive the amp of Lamm 2.0 quality with a single driver back-loaded loudspeaker.
