I don't like running tubes in the summer as they can add a lot of heat to the room depending on what amp/how many tubes etc.
Klipsch's will sound really best w/tube IMO. Which ones do you have? I don't care for many of the newer ones and the older ones need x-over upgrades IMO.

Well, I don't have the Klipsch spkrs any longer, and I can't recall the models, but they were circa 90's and middle of the line-up, not top end. I have ML Source speaks now, running them with a Sheng-Ya integrated. And I just realized it's with a bit of irony I purchased the amp, since it is a hybrid, having a TUBED!!! front end. Imagine that, after having gone on about my fear of tubes. Evidently I must have considered it less of a potential problem when I bought it. Can't recall now, but I did buy it after a very favorable review. Anyhow, I appreciate all the responses which have gone a good way to dispel my "fear" so to speak, should I ever be in the position to consider a new/different amp. Dave

Well I recommend you try one. You'll have fun. Wait until November when it will help heat the house. Cheers!

A nice pair of klipschs and a low watt tube amp make a great summer combo
i use a Grommes phi-26 1.75 wpc amp with a pair of Quartets
not much heat
Surely if there was a speaker that could work with a tube amp that did not make a lot of heat they'd be a nice set of older Klipsch's. Cheers!
