Little Dot I+ is a hybrid amp, so you're both kind of right.

I'm not a fan of hybrids but .... the LDI+ is a great sounding amp.  It did me good for 2 years.

I don't have the MS2's, but I love the sound of my SR60's through vintage solidstate receivers, like my Marantz. It's a warm tube sound, but isn't quite as warm.

I am using the Little Dot MK III with my 225i's and am very much enjoying the sound.  I find the MK III to be a very good amp for tube rolling, lots of different sounds, it also responded nicely to a power cord upgrade.
