Don't know what the impedance curve of your Mordaunt-Short MS30i classic speakers is but the sensitivity would allow you to use either the Audion Sterling single-ended amp ($1195 US) which is rated at 12-watts/channel or the Audio Electronic Supply SE-811 mono-block amps ($1195 US kit/$1495 US factory assembled) which is also rated at 12-watts/channel. If the impedance curve of your speakers is fairly flat then single-ended (including SET amps) could work for you. Of course, the size of room and the SPL that you like to listen will also affect how many watts will effectively work for you. With my Joseph Audio RM50si speakers (which are rated at 88 dB, 8 ohms nom, 7 ohms min), I have been able to use either of the fore mentioned amps in my 14'x15'x8' room and get well over 90 dB listening levels without any strain or compression. I generally like to listen at between 85-90 dB SPL.
