As you may already know, from an engineering standpoint, there is no reason why any modern high quality high current solid state amplifier would not work well with TAD speakers. Tube amps can work well too if carefully vetted with the speaker.
Since each amplifier can have it's own sonic signature, and high end gear can be expensive to change around, it's important to hear different combinations so you find the synergy you want.
I had a choice between Krell, Mark Levinson, Audio Research and McIntosh amplification. I don't consider any of these amps universally better all the time under all conditions. They all produced highly listenable results. In the end I felt the McIntosh offered not only very good sound, but the most build quality, power, resale value and reliability for my money.

TAD speaker dont can play real music with Mcintosh. no way.
playing is a thing .... to fly the TAD is another.
the "small" CR1 monitor I tested with pass xa100.8, 400watt FM, .... it is still not enough!
with Soulution was a beautiful sound.
with the TAD ampli is too amazing but they NEED a lot of electricity.
( Viola, big gryphon,, XA160.8 or better the XS serie, ....)
for my have really me sense invest in a TAD with MCintosh.......
