It's probably more of a synergy thing than anything. The VOT's don't have much bass response below 40 Hz and what it does have is shelved down a few db below 100Hz. They are happiest with an amp with a low damping factor which will boost up the bass a bit. The dynaco 120 is known for a fat bass so the system probably worked pretty well together. If you want to run a modern SS amp with lots of NFB and high damping factor, you might need to eq the bass a bit to get it where you want. Room placement will also help. Moving the speakers closer to the back wall or into the corners will emphasize the bass more.
