Thanks Amir. My Tannoys are 92db, and measure reasonably flat, but don't usually go well with single ended power amps as they need at least a moderate damping factor to control the large cone, otherwise the bass can be poorly defined (working best in the 20 to 50 damping factor range - higher than this and the life can get sucked out) - this seems to apply regardless of the absolute power rating.
However my current single ended amps seem to work very well, I don't have measurements though. I remain curious about the Model 88 but will need to wait a little I think before I can hear a set. Meanwhile I am quite excited about the Model 5 which I hope will be completed soon.
I was trying to message you directly regarding the output impedance of the Model 5, I'm keen to know what value you measured, but I don't seem to be able to send a message, perhaps I don't have enough posts yet.
