You have to be careful with Chinese amps that are rated at 220V mains.
With out typical 245V mains they are over stressed a lot.

My experience with Ks, they haven't liked any if the el84 amps I've used with them and also never really worked at baje offs with el84 amps. The croft power amps arent as good as the pre amps..I think they'll sound a bit reedy and sharp with the Ks. Hold out for a prima Luna or AI500. An audion sterling would sound nice but I doubt it would do rock.

I just used a prologue 1, it was a good match. Around 40w a side, so meaty and bold sounding.
All the suggestions are fine, I loved the Audio Innovation S 500 but mine overheated and blew up, the Icon Audio amps are solid, well made and reliable. I've also heard the Audio Note OTO making nice sounds with your speakers, gather your money and throw the dice!

Doesn't the OTO use EL84 equivalents?
