Many folks have said that the CLXes are happier with big solid state amps. My MC501's seem to be a great fit. However I can't help but wonder how some nice smooth tubes might sound. The first time I heard them were on a pair of McIntosh MC275's and that was my "you had me at hello moment". I would love to hear how they sound with MC2301's.
Make sure to bring some not so great recordings on your demo. There is a dramatic difference between different recordings.
Let us know how the demo goes!
