RE: Tube amp recommendation

I have a pair of Zu Essence speakers, with a 97db rating. I also agree with the EL34 sound with these speakers. I use a pair of Quicksilver mini mite mono blocks. Very sweet 25 watt amps easily drive the speakers to more db than I can stand. My pre-amp is usually run at 11 for the Dac, 13 for phono and 9 for the cd/sacd player.

I listen to a mixture of jazz and classic rock, being 52 now.

Loud and sweet, I know you are looking for integrated, but I agree with the EL34 based amp, and can attest to 25 watts being more than enough with this type of speaker.
