You may want to look back at this old Planar Asylum thread:

Check out the posts by robin@wyattmail.com (Robyatt Audio). He uses Quad 57s as his reference loudspeakers, tried out about 2 dozen amps back then. At that time (2006), he found the ASR Emitters to be best, but modified Rogue Atlas with EH KT90s (subsequently brought out as the Magnum version) to be second best, even compared to more expensive amps such as ARC V70, Air Tight ATM211, Transcendent OTL, Berning ZH270, etc. Didn't try any Luxmans though.
Here is more info from a 6moons article:

Since then he has moved on, first to the Miyajima 2010 OTL, and most recently to the Butler Audio Monads. He has used his Quads at audio show demos and consistently had best 10 in show ratings, such as:
