What speakers are you using w/ the Dev?

I heard a friend's Jadis tube amp. Even with 60W, it has great dynamic, plus the warm sweet tone that you expect from a good Class A tube amp.
I don't want to go tube, and I heard great things about Pass labs.
Thinking about switching. In fact, I am pretty sure about it.
Anyone has similar experience?

Sopra 2
Burgundy - which Pass Labs are you looking at. I'm familiar with Sopra 2's and have driven them with my dual 220CI's (testing at my local dealer). They take a lot of power and the dual 220's where a match in heaven. I don't feel the Aleph 2 (100w Class A's) would give me any where near the same SQ I got out of the Focal's with the 2 220's (d440ci config).
The Sopra 2's are a wonderful speaker and are matched beautifully with Devialet (but you may need to move to a higher output than you currently have).
They also fill a large room very nicely.
